Student in the Scientific Computing and Applied Mathematics (SciCAM) Masters Program in the Applied Mathematics and Statistics Department at UC Santa Cruz, part of the Jack Baskin School of Engineering.

Organized and facilitated the projects conducted by a subsection of Nicolas Davidenko's perception lab focused on motion perception. Mentored research assistants in their roles and duties.

Collaborated on series of experiments studying the interaction between attention and face adaptation. Conducted the literature review and wrote significant portions of multiple papers on motion perception. Completed a senior thesis focused on probing the interaction between higher-order and lower-order motion perception systems. Supported additional studies by assisting with coding and data analysis, running participants, as well as participating in brainstorming and feedback sessions during weekly lab meetings.

Lead the computational component of an EEG study that focused on identifying bio-markers for sustained attention. Responsible for signal processing and classification.

Worked on a face similarity study, helping to modify and update the code base of an Amazon Mechanical Turk experiment.
