Before joining the lab in the Summer of 2026, Naomi graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with a B.A. in Psychology and Film Studies. She’s interested in multimodal approaches assessing how cultural messaging via entertainment media (movies, music, social media, etc.) interacts with perceptions and experiences of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) and sexual violence. Throughout her time in undergraduate school, she’s worked with multiple investigators at UNL including Dr. Jenna Finch, Dr. Rebecca Brock, and Dr. Sarah Gervais to study these intersections. Her CV is available upon request.
