According to her blog, The American Psychology Association recognizes her as a “scientific expert on interpersonal attraction and relationships.

She is also the author of her newly published book, “Love Demystified: Strategies for a Successful Love Life,” which gives readers tips on how to live a happy love life based on psychological research.

On Monday, students and faculty can get a taste on what her book is about. She will discuss the red flags to look out for when first dating someone, how you can improve a current relationship, and what makes love last.
