Research Interests: Having a brother with Down Syndrome and Autism, I have naturally found interests in researching cognitive and developmental disabilities. I am also interestedÌýin researching the neuropharmacology of treatmentsÌýfor such disabilities. Despite this, I am still learning about various other areas of research within neuroscience, andÌýhave found a general love for the procedural methodologyÌýof the field and its ability to aid in the development of new understandings that can have major implications on our consciousÌýlives.Ìý

A Little ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Me: I am a junior undergrad at ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ and plan on pursuing a PhD within the neuroscience field. Growing up, I lived in both Atlanta, Georgia and Indianapolis, Indiana. In my free time I find myself jamming the guitar, skiing, and exploring both cities and the outdoors.Ìý
