About
I'm a postdoctoral researcher studying multi-scale mechanisms of brain function and dysfunction in disease, particularly Parkinson's disease. I geek out on statistics, data visualization, and open science. I recently completed my PhD (December 2025) supervised by A/Prof Ben Fulcher in the Dynamics and Neural Systems Lab at The University of Sydney. My thesis research was focused on translating statistically sophisticated methods from complex systems science to multimodal neuroimaging data to characterize brain topology in health and disease. Before moving to Sydney, I lived in Boston while studying at Northeastern University and researching the relationship between tau pathology and vascular function in Alzheimer's disease under the supervision of Dr. Rachel Bennett at the MassGeneral Institute for Neurodegenerative Disease.
What's a fun fact about you?
I was the drum major for my high school marching band back in New Jersey and created my own overly complicated signature salute
Projects
Neural basis of Neurodegeneration
Explores how degenerative processes alter neural circuits and brain dynamics in age-related and neurodegenerative conditions. Uses imaging and computational modeling to identify early signatures of neurodegeneration and test intervention strategies.
