What is it you do for a living? (Parenting, volunteering, CEO of social service organization, etc.)
I am a 3rd year Human Development and Psychology double major and Education minor at UC Davis.
What organization(s) do you volunteer or work for?
Currently, I work at UC Davis' Office of Student Support and Judicial Affairs, and am a Research Assistant at UC Davis' Social Environment and Stress Lab. I also am a member of NAMI UC Davis.
What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
About 2 years ago, I learned about the CDC/Kaiser's ACEs study through a Psychology podcast and the research really resonated with me. ACEs and resilience science immediately became one of my main research interests, leading me to join a lab at UC Davis that focuses on children/adolescents' environments and how they influence physiological/mental manifestations of stress. I hope to find a career where I can promote resilience in children with ACEs, and I believe that joining a PACEs community would be a great place to start.
If you're part of a community-based PACEs initiative, which one?
N/A
