Biography

At 福利导在线观看, I am mainly involved in teaching and research activities that address how people think, feel and behave at work. In my courses, students learn about how to understand the behaviors they see in their co-workers, leaders, subordinates, and themselves. We cover both scientific and practical material that prepares students to hire and train employees well, motivate high performance, and sustain a healthy and happy workplace. The bottom line: there is a strong fiscal argument for caring for your employees鈥� well-being and there is a lot of high-quality research out there to help you do so appropriately.  

After finishing my undergraduate degree at the University of Georgia, I earned my Master鈥檚 and Ph.D. degrees in Industrial Organizational Psychology from Virginia Tech. My current research interests center on the complicated ways that time interacts with work and well-being. I enjoy exploring how specific scheduling dynamics (e.g., night shift work, gig work, working students) interact with the cycle of work and rest that has long been studied in mostly Monday-Friday, 9:00am 鈥� 5:00pm office workers.  

In my personal time, I enjoy day hikes, bike riding, skiing, and cooking. Find me on campus and we can talk about the best hikes in the area, the pro鈥檚 and con鈥檚 of east coast skiing, or the ability to bring people into the kitchen with just butter and garlic in a hot pan.
