Background
I am a registered Research Psychologist, and have completed a PhD in Psychology. My research interest is in resilience. I want to understand how young South African girls cope well with risk filled lives. Also, I am interested in exploring resilience in the face of ambiguous loss. Not only to understand resilience processes, but to understand how those processes are shaped by context, culture, and gender.
