I am a Research Assistant Professor working with Dr. Christian Meissner in the Investigative Interviewing Laboratory at the University of Texas at El Paso in the USA.  I conduct research on human memory with a particular focus on eyewitness memory and applying psychology to counter-terrorism contexts.

On this website you will find information on my current and past research projects and downloadable versions of my publications and CV, as well as contact information.

News

My paper on the effects of emotion on specific aspects of eyewitness recall and recognition performance is currently in press in Emotion.

I will be presenting my meta-analysis of the psychological mechanisms that predict true and false confession likelihood at the 10th Conference of the Society for Research in Memory and Cognition Conference, Rotterdam, The Netherlands in June 2013.
