Hello! I’m an MD/PhD student at McGovern Medical School interested in psychiatry and computational neuroscience.

Originally from Austin, I studied philosophy at Swarthmore College, and worked as a research assistant at Johns Hopkins.

Then, I came to the Medical Scientist Training Program at UT, where I have been supported by the NIH through a National Research Service Award and a Translational and Clinical Science Predoctoral Fellowship.

Ultimately, I hope to use computational neuroscience to better understand and treat psychiatric disorders.
