Chris is a multidisciplinary researcher who investigates stress dynamics across occupational, sport, and educational psychology contexts. In his research, he has previously focused on defining and measuring resilience in longitudinal studies in the workplace. His current research within NYUAD Teaching, Learning, and Development Lab is focused on understanding support and stress processes and among expatriate teachers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
