Conducted experimental research on emotion, attention, and both social (e.g., altruism, trust, etc.) and non-social (e.g., risk) decisions. In particular, I developed and tested computational models of decision-making processes by fitting them to data I collected using eye-tracking, pupillometry, facial electromyography (EMG), electroencephalography (EEG).

While completing my PhD in social psychology, I conducted several lines of research on topics such as altruism, fairness, trust, risk, emotion, aggression, social exclusion, cognitive control, and attention. My dissertation work examined the effects of acetaminophen on interpersonal trust.

Conducted behavioral experiments in CMU's Department of Social and Decision Sciences on emotion, attention, and social decision-making (e.g., forgiveness).

As a part of a study on empathy, I coded videos of cooperative child-partner dyadic interactions.
