I am a third year PhD candidate in the neuroscience area of the Stanford Psychology department; advised by Russ Poldrack in the Poldrack Lab.

I’m interested in the many factors that impact our learning and focus over time, and am currently working on projects related to cognitive fatigue, effort, and task switching.

Previously, I received a B.S.E. degree in Computer Science from Princeton University, with certificates in Cognitive Science and Linguistics. I worked in the Niv Lab as a lab manager and research assistant. I also spent two summers interning at Meta (first on a Facebook team then at FAIR labs).

I’m passionate about education and mental health, and in my spare time I love to read, write short stories, and run (slowly)!
