Her academic identity bridges Psychology, Mental Health, and Social Science with a dedicated focus on educational engagement dynamics.

She holds a PhD in Psychology and Mental Health, which forms the foundation of her interdisciplinary research approach.

Dr. Christie's research program critically examines social inequalities within person-educational institution relationships.
