Mental Health and Public Policy: Researched from the ground up. 

I'm a high school student studying how screens affect the mental health of young kids-- and what city leaders and schools can do about it. Right now, I'm running a project called "Kits For Kids"
About Me

Mission Statement 

Most conversations that revolve around children and screen time are opinion-based. I'm trying to gather real evidence on how young children use devices, what it does to their wellbeing, and what's actually worth doing about it. 

The Project: Kits For Kids 

A hands-on kit that helps kids unplug and a study of how screens affect them. 

The Writing 

About Me

Who I am, what I'm trying to figure out, and how to reach me. 

Get In Touch

If you research, or make decisions about children's mental health, I'd love to learn from you- and am looking for mentors.
