Hello! I am an MD PHD student in the University of Pittsburgh & Carnegie Mellon University MSTP focusing on neuropsychiatry, computational neuroscience and machine learning. I am interested in using computational methods to study how information is processed in the brain and how these processes are altered in psychiatric disease. In working to ground our theories of psychiatric illness in neural computation, I aim to help open new avenues for targeted and effective therapy.

I am currently pursuing a PhD at CMU in the Program in Neural Computation. With my advisors Steve Chase, Aaron Batista & Byron Yu, I will be working to clarify mechanisms of learning and memory in the nonhuman primate motor cortex using brain computer interfaces.
