I'm fascinated by the eyes and what they reveal about our perception.
I'm an incoming PhD student in Dr. Timothy Brady's Visual and Memory Lab at UC San Diego. Currently, I'm a Research Fellow at the National Institutes of Health in Dr. Peter Bandettini's lab, where I'm investigating how we can modulate our pupil size in real-time to regulate our perception and neural activity. Previously, I built decoding pipelines for BCIs as a Simons Foundation Fellow under Dr. Sergey Stavisky, and investigated visual perception at the University of Oxford advised by Dr. Hannah Smithson.
I completed my Bachelor's in Cognitive Science from UC Davis in 2 years. And spent most of that time in research labs, learning as much as I could about eye-tracking, EEG, and visual cognition.
