About me

I am an assistant professor in neuroscience and neuropsychology focused on studying brain–behavior relationships and developing neurally informed interventions with strong ecological validity. My work bridges science and real-world application. Beyond academia, I am deeply interested in science, art, and literature, and I value maintaining a balanced integration between my professional work and family life as a mother of two daughters and a wife.
