I received my Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from Brown University in 2019. For my dissertation, I worked on the causal quantification of pathophysiology in a rodent model of Parkinson’s disease using optogenetics. I transitioned towards exploring neurophysiology-driven therapies for patients with Parkinson’s disease in the T32 postdoc fellowship program. My research now focuses on establishing the causal links bridging errand brain rhythms, disease symptoms, and effective treatments, at multiple time scales. I am also working with the Conte center to identify the neural substrates of human approach-avoidance choice behavior. In my free time I love to unwind by riding my bike, watching F1, and flying plane simulations. When I'm not doing any of those I polish my skills in dad jokes, striving to unleash the art of puns.
