About


I am a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Toronto and the Baycrest Center for Research and Education. My research considers how the brain changes with age and how these changes affect the way items are represented in working memory. I'm particularly interested in how changes in cognitive control over item representations can lead to the memory deficits and benefits observed in healthy aging.
Outside of the lab, I am dedicated to science teaching and communication. I am currently a course instructor (PSY372: Human Memory) and have served as both a Lead Writing TA for the Department of Psychology and a Grant Writing Consultant for the Graduate Center of Academic Communication at the University of Toronto.
