I am currently a postdoctoral research associate at the NEST Lab at University of Southern California. In Summer 2025 I will be joining the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as a Research Assistant Professor in Psychology and Neuroscience with Winston Center for Technology and the Developing Mind.
My research is focused on how we can use neuroscience to better understand complex, mixed, and sentimental feelings induced by modern life.
These experiences are crucial for understanding well-being in the digital age, and my work focuses on both the basic and developmental processes underlying how we behave and feel in an emotionally complex world.
