Lab Over the Years

Post Doc, University of Florida

Graduated with a B.A. in Anthropology, a B.S. in Psychology, a M.S. in Psychology , and a Ph.D. in Psychology (Cognitive Neuroscience) from the University of Florida.

I am a postdoctoral researcher here in the Brain, Cognition, and Development lab. Throughout graduate training, my research utilized multimodal methods (EEG and fMRI) to examine the dynamic processes employed in selective and competitive attention as well as the underlying mechanisms of experience-based short-term visuocortical plasticity. My postdoctoral research focuses on investigating selective attention and learning mechanisms in infants . I am additionally interested in assessing reliability and ensuring methodology of EEG-based paradigms are replicable and valid in developmental populations.

Beyond my research interests, I enjoy cooking, crafting, watching hockey and F1, and being a mediocre trivia competitor.

Graduated with a B.S. in Psychology with an emphasis in Behavioral and Cognitive Neuroscience and a minor in Sociology from the University of Florida.

I’m a post-baccalaureate student preparing to enter the field of Clinical Pediatric Psychology. By expanding my knowledge and skillset in applied research settings, being a part of this lab will empower me in achieving my academic and professional goals. During my free time, I like to spend my time watching anime, playing video games, and doing activities with my friends.
