BIO
I recently earned a doctoral degree in Gerontology, with a research focus on “Physical, Psychological, and Cognitive Intrinsic Capacity Project Resilience in Adulthood.” My research interests include cognition, memory, emotion, and the aging process. I am currently expanding my work to explore brain structure and function using neuroimaging techniques under the mentorship of Dr. Schwarb. Through this interdisciplinary approach, I aim to deepen my understanding of how the brain adapts and maintains resilience across the lifespan. Outside of research, I enjoy spending time with family, cooking, trying new recipes, and sharing meals with family and friends!
