I am a first-year PhD student at Boston University, advised by Dr. Josh Peterson, where I work on computational approaches to understanding decision-making, erratic and maladaptive behavior, and how brain models can help us make sense of what goes wrong in psychiatric and clinical populations. Outside of research, I spend most of my time at the gym, reading, traveling, or playing video games a little too competitively.
My research sits at the intersection of artificial intelligence and psychology, with a focus on computational approaches to decision-making, particularly in adverse or maladaptive contexts. I use computational modeling to better understand the cognitive and neural mechanisms that drive these processes.
More broadly, I'm interested in computational psychiatry and how mechanistic brain models can help us understand the relationship between what's happening in the brain and how it shows up clinically, with the hope of informing better approaches to diagnosis and treatment.
