THE CULTURAL, RESILIENCY & MOTIVATION LAB 

We are a developmental psychology lab where we study motivation among ethnic-racial minoritized populations, particularly among Latinx youth using a resiliency approach. We aim to conduct research in a manner that gives back to the populations we study and create meaningful relationships within these communities. The ultimate goal of our research is to be able to use our findings to design interventions, enhance academic curriculum, and inform public policy. We hope these efforts will empower youth, reduce educational and health disparities while transforming the field of psychology.
