Research Interests:

     I am interested in social emotions such as empathy (and why we don't have it), anger (and why we're afraid of it), and moral judgment (and why we mostly just judge marginalized people). Specifically, I am interested in how individual, group, and situational factors influence our perception of different social emotions and how those emotions are transformed into subsequent moral behavior.

     My work is interdisciplinary, spanning social and cognitive psychology, neuroscience, engineering, and philosophy.
