I am a cognitive (neuro)scientist interested in human memory. I am particularly interested in how we use our memories not only to help us recollect the past, but also to guide future behavior. I employ a range of methods, including behavior, fMRI, EEG (both intracranial and scalp), and computational modeling. For more, see my Research page.

Starting this fall, I will be an Assistant Professor in the Psychology Department at The Ohio State University! More information about my lab will be coming soon, but feel free to get in touch if you're interested in joining.

I am currently a post doc in Anna Schapiro's lab at the University of Pennsylvania, funded by the NSF SBE Postdoctoral Research Fellowship. I completed my graduate work with Nick Turk-Browne at Yale, where I also collaborated closely with Elizabeth Goldfarb. Before graduate school, I was an undergraduate and lab manager at New York University, where I worked with Lila Davachi and Sarah DuBrow.
