I received my B.A. in psychology from Bloomsburg University in 1992. I won the Psychology Student Award that year. I consistently finished in the top of my class. From there, I went on to receive my Master's Degree in General Psychology from the University of West Florida in Pensacola. My Masters Thesis focused on examining the different EEG patterns of human subjects while they performed two types of meditation. I then went on to the University of Alabama at Birmingham where I received my Ph.D. in Psychology with a specialty in Behavioral Neuroscience. My dissertation focused on examining the effects of changes in intracellular calcium on the brain protein, tau. This protein is a major component in the pathology of Alzheimer's Disease. This work resulted in numerous papers published in scientific journals.
After receiving my PhD, I chose to stay home to raise my children. They are now beginning high school and I am anxious to get back into the academic setting. I love the science of Psychology and am eager to help others learn. Being home with my children has given me many opportunities to tutor. I was their first teacher and feel I can explain difficult material in ways that everyone can understand. Feel free to contact me if you think I can help you.
