I'm recruiting teens (ages 13-16) for a Youth Advisory Board! Teens will provide feedback on a research study on social media and mental health. Meetings will be a few times per year, entirely virtual.

If you know of any teens who might be interested, please send them my way!

People speak of hope as if it is this delicate, ephemeral thing made of whispers and spider's webs. It's not. Hope has dirt on her face, blood on her knuckles, the grit of the cobblestones in her hair, and just spat out a tooth as she rises for another go.
