I recently earned my PhD in Human Development and Family Science which is in the Human Sciences department at Ohio State, and will be graduating in May of 2016. My interests include art education, arts and disability, quality of life for families of children with autism, child development, family systems, and transition to parenthood. I am passionate about helping others, and I am currently on the job market for looking for interesting and meaningful ways to to do so!
