In general, my research interests focus around the intersection of social psychology and politics.  I am currently investigating how the strength of a given argument and the specific type of language it contains influence a message’s persuasiveness.  With this study serving as a foundation, I plan to investigate the link between language and attitude change in more applied political contexts in the future.  I am also involved with an ongoing project that examines the link between reality television and narcissism.
