About me

I am a cognitive scientist interested in learning and decision making. Biological decision makers exist in a world in constant flux, but are also in flux themselves. When a decision maker learns, it fundamentally changes its relationship to its environment. Such potential changes should be taken into account when deciding how to allocate our mental resources from moment to moment.

Currently, I am a Presidential Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Princeton Neuroscience Institute, where I work on cognitive modeling and human behavior with Jonathan D. Cohen. I earned my Ph.D. in Biology at Harvard University, where I worked on strategic decision making in rodents with David D. Cox and Andrew M. Saxe. I obtained an A.B. in Molecular Biology summa cum laude from Princeton University.
