I'm Violet! I received my undergrad degree in Psychology (with a concentration in Neuroscience) from Carleton College in in 2017. I worked in a research lab studying spoken language comprehension throughout my undergrad experience, and worked as a lab manager for a year after graduating.
I started my PhD in Psychological & Brain Sciences in 2018 at Washington University, and graduated in 2023 (picking up a Master's degree along the way!). In addition to studying psycholinguistics and other topics related to cognitive psychology, I took many advanced statistics classes to hone my expertise in statistics and data analysis. I served as a teaching assistant for several undergraduate- and graduate-level statistics courses, led the R coding bootcamp for incoming PhD students in our department, and tutored several graduate students in graduate-level statistics courses. I also served as the Instructor of Record for two sections on Introduction to Psychology during my time in graduate school.
I've been teaching at a small liberal arts college for almost three years, but I love teaching so much that I want to do more of it in my free time in a tutoring setting! My favorite course to teach is statistics for psychology majors. Nothing brings me more joy than helping students—particularly those who feel uneasy around mathematics—build confidence and realize that we're all "math people."
