She graduated from UC Berkeley with a BA in Molecular and Cell Biology and Minors in Public Policy and The Developing Child. She plans to utilize statistical methods and evidence-based interventions to better understand pathways to adolescent substance use and internalizing symptoms.
Rachel is currently evaluating how the interaction of parenting styles and peer engagement is associated with adolescent substance use. She is specifically interested in how early adolescent risk factors predict late adolescent outcomes.
