She is known for capturing women’s work experiences that intersect with unique biological needs, such as hormone-driven cognitive changes across the menstrual cycle and work-life identity changes throughout the IVF process. Her team research explores the impact of team diversity of success, including the role of female leadership on team members’ later success as leaders and team affective diversity on risk-taking outcomes.
