about

I am a second-year Ph.D. student advised by Chaz Firestone at the Johns Hopkins University Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences, where I also collaborate with Shari Liu.

I study visual perception and cognition, and am especially interested in exploring how the mind separates content (what something is) from form (how it appears to us).

In 2023, I graduated from Yale University, where I studied Statistics & Data Science. During this time, I was fortunate to collaborate with several different researchers, including Frank Keil (Yale), Tomer Ullman (Harvard), and Steven Franconeri (Northwestern), among others.

Beyond research, I love playing and watching basketball (and have been a lifelong Celtics fan), producing music, writing, and performing stand-up comedy.
