I'm a computational social science PhD student with a background in neuroscience and human-computer interaction.
My research interests lie in the use of network science to study online communities, misinformation, and political communication.
My undergrad research was in computational neuroscience, studying texture perception at UChicago's Bensmaia Lab. After school, I moved to Munich on a Fulbright, working under Professors Lewis Chuang and Albrecht Schmidt at LMU Munich on electrical muscle stimulation for rhythm learning. In January 2025, I started at Eastern Research Group, working on software, UI design, and analysis projects for the EPA and other federal clients. As of September 2025, I am a PhD student under Professors Agnes Horvat and Billy Brady at Northwestern. You can find me on X or on Bluesky. I also like playing music, board games, hiking, writing music, squash, and the 2006 Pink Panther movie with Steve Martin.
