Keiron Brown, Psy.D., is a clinical psychologist and the founder of Relationale LLC, which publishes WordRushTools. His doctorate is in psychology, which is directly relevant to the site's material on vocabulary learning, memory and practice; the Scrabble, crossword and solver content rests on published word lists and reference works, not on clinical expertise.
