I am a neuroscientist studying motivated behavior. I am currently a postdoctoral fellow in the Howe Lab at Boston University, where I use fiber photometry to investigate dynamics of dopaminergic signaling in the striatum.
I got my PhD in Neurobiology at Duke University in the Motivated Memory Lab and the Laboratory for Psychiatric Neuroengineering. My graduate research combined human fMRI and rodent in-vivo electrophysiology to investigate the neural signals underlying anticipation and its influences on learning and memory. In addition to the Department of Neurobiology, I was also a part of the Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, Duke Institute for Brain Sciences, and Certificate for College Teaching program.
