I combine the fields of Neuroscience, Computer Science/Cybersecurity, and Political Science to facilitate communication between policymakers and newly emerging Neurotechnologies. My goal is to help both parties better understand one another, recognize the technologies’ drawbacks and dangers, and support the development of more productive and preemptive policies. I aim to better comprehend the science behind Brain-Computer Interface technology and, at the same time, hold a deep knowledge of existing legal policies and where they fall short. With courses in these fields, I am provided with a deep understanding of the biological and cognitive functions on which this technology is built upon, equipped with insight into the mechanisms of algorithms, and educated on the limitations of current public policy.

I would love the opportunity to spend a semester abroad, ideally during my junior year.

I am a part of the Chancellor’s Honors Program. In my free time, I love reading, baking, online puzzling, watching documentaries, playing Jeopardy! with my family, and taking pictures of trees.
