I am a PhD candidate in Communication at The Ohio State University and an incoming Assistant Professor of Communication at George Washington University. My research is motivated by understanding how message design can reduce barriers to information processing, and how information processing evoked through message design can facilitate engagement and persuasion. I explore these relationships in health, science, and political contexts. I teach core communication classes and persuasion.
