Her research explores the intersections of mental health, race, and culture. Specifically, she is researching South Asian mental healthcare in Peel Region and exploring the ways in which cultural understandings of mental health inform organizational resources and programming. Previously, her MA research looked at the relationship between affect, race, and police brutality. Focused on the emotional impact of audiovisual material depicting incidences of police violence, her research looked at how a victim\u2019s race influences how the public as spectators view, listen, and react to their deaths online, and how that in turn, may influence how the larger issue of police violence is understood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Supervisor<br><\/strong>Dr. Alexander McClelland<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Education<br>\n<\/strong>Master of Arts, Major in Legal Studies, Carleton University<br>\nHonours Bachelor of Arts, Major in Sociology and Major in Criminology, Western University<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Awards<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council Doctoral Award, 2024-2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ontario Graduate Scholarship, Carleton University, 2024-2025 (turned down for SSHRC Doctoral Award)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ontario Graduate Scholarship, Carleton University, 2023-2024<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ontario Graduate Scholarship, Carleton University, 2022-2023<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>David and Rachel Epstein Foundation Fund, Carleton University, 2022<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>John Lyndhurst Kingston Scholarship, Carleton University, 2021<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Departmental Graduate Scholarship, Carleton University, 2021-2025<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Domestic Entrance Doctoral Scholarship, Carleton University, 2021<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Senate Medal for Outstanding Academic Achievement, Carleton University, 2021<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Logan, M., Chugh, N., &amp; Moore, D.
