Research Interests

My research focuses on human mating and parenting strategies. While completing my master’s degree in Evolutionary Psychology at the University of Liverpool, I examined how both paternity confidence and self-perceived mate value affects men’s investment in their children. For my PhD, I am studying mate choice and attractiveness and their relationship to health and reproductive success in the Hadza, a hunter-gatherer population in Northern Tanzania.
