About Professor Young
I fell in love with psychology when I took my first college course. I’m a natural people-watcher so human behavior has always fascinated me. As an undergraduate I attended UCLA where I had the opportunity to explore all the different subfields of psychology. I immersed myself internships and became actively involved in research. I continued to pursue my interest in intergroup relations and cross-cultural psychology while completing my graduate work at UCI.
