Kristen is a 4th year PhD student at Boston College, where she works with Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett in the Interdisciplinary Affective Science Laboratory.

Kristen's research explores the psychological mechanisms underlying the perception and experience of emotion. In particular, her work focuses on how language and conceptual knowledge about emotion (what people know about emotion) combine with more basic affective states to produce what we call "seeing emotion" in others or "having" emotions ourselves.
