about

Welcome!

I am a full-time research assistant in the Giocomo Lab at Stanford University. I use two-photon in vivo calcium imaging paired with virtual reality to study hippocampal neuron dynamics during navigation and social behavior.

I graduated from UC San Diego in 2024 with a B.S. in Bioinformatics and Computer Science. During my undergrad, I was awarded the NSF-funded Louis Stokes Alliance Grant to support my research on insular representations of physical and social pain in the Tye Lab at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies.

I care deeply about accessibility for underrepresented groups in STEM and am an advocate for open science communication. I aim to leverage these experiences and continue my research by pursing a PhD in Neuroscience starting Fall 2026.
