* I am drawn to how attention, memory, and decision-making get measured — through neuroimaging, real-world behavioral methods, and on-site clinical surveying — and to who gets left out when those measurements shape public health and disability research."

I am a Bachelor of Science Candidate in Neuroscience at the University of Chicago, minoring in Health and Society. I am expected to graduate June 2030.

Beyond cognitive neuroscience, my research interests span attention and memory, critical disability studies/"crip theory," genetic engineering and modification, and developmental social cognition.

I am interested in pursuing an M.D/M.P.H., and am completing my BS Laboratory Research thesis (NSCI 29100-29102) in September of 2029 under Drs. Edward K. Vogel and Edward S. Awh.
