I am a  Postdoctoral Research Fellow at M3CS  and University of Sydney with Prof. Jakob Hohwy and Dr. Claire O'Callaghan researching computational models of the optimism bias to understand what optimism interventions we could use to treat depression.

My PhD is from Monash University and I completed a B.A at NYU majoring in Biology and minoring in Philosophy and German. At NYU, I founded the Peer Undergraduate Mentoring Program (PUMP) which aims to support women pursuing STEM majors at NYU. I then worked as a research associate in the Genetic Medicine Lab at Weill Cornell and in the BioMedical Engineering Imaging Institute at Mount Sinai. I received my Masters in Brain and Cognitive Sciences from the University of Amsterdam.

I am the co-host of Minds Matter, a conversational podcast about psychology, neuroscience and cognitive science, sponsored by M3CS.
