Bio
Abby is currently a research manager at the University of Pennsylvania's Positive Psychology Center working with Martin Seligman. She is involved in research examining personal narratives, AI, human agency, stable happiness, and more.
As an aspiring professor and researcher, Abby aims to build a research program that fuses the rigorous scientific study of beliefs with effective interventions that target changing maladaptive beliefs to promote individual and collective flourishing. These beliefs may be related to the stories we tell about our lives, the futures we envision for ourselves, and the beliefs we hold about our own bodies
Thus her primary focus is on the question: How do our beliefs and mindsets impact our realities?
