Associate Professor, Lab Director

Department of Psychology

I received my BAH in Psychology from York University in 2000 and my PhD in Developmental Psychology from the University of Connecticut in 2006. I am interested in the development of individuals with autism spectrum disorders and how all aspects of development (social, perceptual, cognitive, and linguistic) interact in individuals with ASD, intellectual disabilities, and typically developing individuals across the life span.

In my spare time (what spare time?) I enjoy spending time with friends (especially eating good food or activities near or on water), watching movies with my cats, shoe- shopping, traveling, and reading. And last but certainly not least, my favourite ice cream flavour is Edy鈥檚 low-fat French Silk (one of the only things I miss about living in the States).

Autism Spectrum Disorder Studies Lab

ASD Studies is a group of researchers at 成人大片 interested in understanding how individuals with and without Autism Spectrum Disorders develop over time. Autism Spectrum Disorders are a group of developmental disorders that typically involve impairments in communication and language, difficulties with social interactions and a restricted range of interests. People with an ASD may demonstrate repetitive behaviours and may have unusual reactions to their everyday environment.
