MJ is a Ph.D. student with Dr. Cheryl Kaiser and received their BA in Psychology, with honors from the University of San Francisco. MJ is interested in how people change through major life transitions and the factors that influence self-concept and self-continuity. They approach this question theoretically, and in research with under-represented and diverse groups. Their other research has examined mental simulation, memory, and politics using experimental, natural language processing, and neuroimaging techniques.
