The Diverse Family Relationships lab has a lot of fun together. We have a party at my house after each fall and spring semester. It's an opportunity for me to thank everyone for their time and dedication to the lab, celebrate our accomplishments, and de-stress after a hard semester.
Here are the lab members outside of the new Psychological and Brain Sciences building on the first day of classes!
Below are some pictures from past lab parties and conference presentations.

December 2018 Holiday Party at Dr. Gee's house - A fun brunch featuring an avocado toast bar and traditional white elephant gift exchange. The most popular gifts this year were a giant stress ball, a Freud finger puppet and couch, and a beautiful candle.
Dr. Isaiah Pickens was in the lab as an undergraduate (BA '05) and is now a licensed clinical psychologist. We've kept in touch over the years and he visits my family regularly when he's in town.
