CURRENT RESEARCH

My research interests are primarily focused in the broad domain of leadership, and not in the archaic art of phrenology. Specifically, I am interested in understanding on how we structure our cognitive understanding and selection of leaders. Additionally, I am also interested in understanding the social and cognitive processes that surround the practice of interdisciplinary scientific research. In my other life I spend my time as Super Daddy, hanging out with my wife and daughters.
