Journey & Vision
A Note from joanne
Dear reader,
welcome to my site. my niche in this world is exploring how humans build resilience when overcoming adversity.
prior to my research journey, I spent my weekdays at google learning how to track and use patterns in human behavior to encourage humans to behave in certain ways. It was an accelerated course in best-in-class marketing and applied behavioral science. after eight years, i felt ready for a change.
in 2025, I took my learnings in experimentation and applied it to developmental science. now, I explore joyful, play-based ways to foster resilience and emotional regulation in adults and children. i also enjoy writing about what i'm learning.
