Prior to joining the Institute of Cognitive Science, I was a research assistant at the Faculty of  Social Work at the University of Calgary.  I have been (and still am) working on projects about how people represent and use numbers ; and the experiences of individuals with mental health issues as they transition to university and the workplace.
