She/Her

Maddie earned her B.S. in Psychology from the University of Michigan in 2020 and completed her M.A. in Psychology at Brandeis University in 2025. Her research has examined how trauma features influence child and adolescent symptom development. She also has experience studying how prenatal stress and maternal factors shape child regulatory functioning. Maddie’s interest focus on how early adversity and trauma shape the development of externalizing behaviors in young children. She plans to pursue a doctorate in clinical psychology with the long-term goal of improving assessments and interventions for at-risk youth.

Outside of the lab, Maddie enjoys skiing, watching college football, reading romance novels, and traveling with her partner!
