I'm an Associate professor in the Institute for Positive and Psychology , at Australian Catholic University, which was recently ranked in Top 10 most productive institutions in educational psychology in the world. My current research focuses on (1) how multiple ecological systems on the cultural, social, motivational, and behavioural development of youth shape their major and career choices, particularly in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics); (2) the impact of student social-emotional skills on academic and life outcomes, (3) improve the effectiveness of different prevention programs to enhance children’s and adolescents’ psychological well-being. I was recently also listed in the Top 10 most productive early career researchers in educational psychology and in the Top 2% most cited researchers in education in the world.
