I am a PhD candidate in the School of Communication at The Ohio State University (OSU). My research is focused on understanding how and why acts of aggression and violence occur in society, and how to prevent such socially destructive behavior through anger management and training. I explore these relationships using quantitative methods (e.g., meta-analytic reviews, laboratory experiments, online surveys).
