Dr. Michelle Miller’s Perinatal Traumatic Stress Lab studies different therapeutic interventions to reduce traumatic stress symptoms in pregnant and postpartum populations. Improved perinatal maternal health may reduce perinatal health complications ... and improve infant health outcomes. The Perinatal Traumatic Stress Lab works to improve maternal health outcomes and prioritized reaching women in rural communities as well as women who may be experiencing discrimination and poverty. One intervention is Perinatal Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET), which provides opportunities for pregnant and postpartum women who have experienced extremely stressful or traumatic events to engage in exposure-based therapy so we can study if NET reduces PTS, depressive, and dissociation symptoms. NET is a treatment commonly used for different trauma disorders that aims to help participants learn new ways to cope with their traumatic experiences. Our research provides new means for perinatal women to receive support during their pregnant and postpartum period. Read more

As an intern at the JW Marriott my duties included a myriad of things from reviewing bill packets to semester long projects here I will tell you a little more about each task I have been assigned. Every single day when I come in the first thing I do ... is check my email for things I need to print, if I need to print out the bill packets for that day then I do so and I review the bill packets for the hotel and ensure that the charges that are on the bills for any events we have held at the hotel have been added to the bill and calculated correctly. I also periodically go through expedia charges and allocate them to payments which is a very delicate task and often takes a long time because I am essentially matching names to different line numbers and payments. I have been assigned a semester-long project where I am going through different files that we have and making sure that the files are also updated in a shared excel file we have for direct bill approved groups. If they are not in the excel file then I must make accounts for these groups and add them into the excel file. Read more
