I am a 3rd year Cognitive and Brain sciences psychology PhD student at University of Minnesota in Dr. Nicola Grissom's NeuroGOAL laboratory. I currently work with mouse models of psychosis while studying learning and decision making using touchscreen operant chambers and electrophysiology technology. Additional research interests include stress and motor coordination associated with action selection. 

​

I enjoy climbing, hiking, kayaking, reading, crocheting, travelling, and spending time with my pet hedgehog.
