Geraldine is a second-year Developmental Psychology Ph.D. student at the University of Pittsburgh and a recipient of both the K. Leroy Irvis Fellowship and the LRDC Director’s Fellowship. She earned her B.A. in Psychology from Harvard College with a focus on Cognitive Neuroscience and Evolutionary Psychology and a minor in Social Anthropology, and previously conducted neuropsychological research on Alzheimer’s and dementia at UPMC under Dr. Annie Cohen. Her research examines how sociocultural contexts shape youth and family experiences with psychopathology, with the goal of developing accessible, culturally relevant mental health interventions through a public health lens.
