Brief Professional Bio

I joined the Carleton faculty in 1983. I received a B.A. (with a double major in Psychology and Economics) from Wellesley College, and an M.A. and Ph.D. in Psychology, and an M.S.E. in Computer and Information Sciences at the University of Pennsylvania. At Carleton I teach courses in developmental and cognitive psychology, as well as courses in introductory psychology and statistics. I helped establish the Cognitive Studies concentration at Carleton, and serve as its coordinator. I also served as the Psychology Department chair from 1991-1994.

In my life outside of Carleton (Yes! I have one!) I am a mom to Timmy and Kimberlynn. I also train Bernese Mountain dogs in obedience, and am a licensed obedience judge in the AKC and ASCA registries.
