Katie Fitzgerald is a postdoctoral associate working with the Einhorn Center and the Bronfenbrenner Center for Translational Research in the College of Human Ecology at Cornell University to examine the impact of community-engaged learning at Cornell. She received her Ph.D. in Communication from the University at Buffalo in 2021. In 2022, she completed a postdoc with the Leuven School for Mass Communication Research in Belgium. Her research examines narrative and media message effects with a focus on how certain narrative experiences can foster positive, prosocial outcomes such as empathy and helping, moral sensitivity, and well-being. Her research on restorative narratives examines a unique approach to sharing stories about tragic events or social issues through emphasizing character strengths and meaningful progression.
