Hi, I’m Rachel! I am an Assistant Professor in Preventive Medicine at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and core faculty within the Center for Behavioral Intervention Technologies (CBITS). I completed my PhD in Communication at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (2018), followed by an NIMH-funded postdoctoral fellowship at CBITs (2018-2020). My current research program applies my multi-disciplinary training to design and test digital tools that can help individuals manage common mental health concerns like depression, anxiety, and substance use.
