BSc (First Class Honours) Psychology
University of Calgary

I attended the University of Calgary in Calgary, Alberta, Canada for my undergraduate degree from 2015 to 2020. I completed a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with First Class Honours and a minor in Sociology.

I knew that I wanted to do Industrial/Organizational (I/O) Psychology so I focused as much of my coursework on that as I could. As such, I took courses on leadership and motivation, personnel selection, and research methods in I/O. I also took Sociology of Work to expand my knowledge of work further outside of psychology.

From my second year to my final year, I worked as a Research Assistant (RA) in Dr. Thomas O'Neill's Individual and Team Performance (ITP) Lab. 

I also completed independent research study courses to further my research experiences in Fall 2018 (supervised by Dr. O'Neill, Dr. Nick Turner, and Steve Granger) and Winter 2019 (with Dr. Turner and Steve Granger). During this time I worked with Dr. Turner as a RA as well. 

In my final year, I completed the honours program. Dr. Turner and Steve Granger continued to be my advisors for this. My honours project, titled "Support for Safety from Different Sources Predicts Safety Outcomes: The Mediating Role of Job-Related Affective Well-Being", examined how support for safety from different sources within an organization, namely senior managers, direct supervisors, and co-workers, can impact employee safety behaviours and injuries through job-related affective well-being.
