Digital Mental Health for Young People

what made me join ucd

I joined UCD for the opportunity to collaborate with experts in digital health, engage in interdisciplinary research, and advance knowledge in the field, while benefiting from services and resources available to Postdoctoral Researchers to support my career development.

I’m a postdoctoral researcher focused on designing mental health technologies for young people. My interests include hiking, traveling, and socializing. I’m interested in exploring the positive impact technology can have on mental health.

CURRENT RESEARCH

I explore the use of AI-powered technologies for mental health support among young people and chair YouthDMH, a pan-European COST Action network focusing on the role that digital technologies can play in supporting young people’s mental health.
