My current research project is looking at the effect of pain on the brain in patients with chronic conditions such as temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and fibromyalgia by utilizing resting-state and task-based fMRI imaging. I'm currently exploring whole-brain analysis techniques to determine imaging biomarkers for various clinical uses like diagnostic, individual experiences of pain, and brain-state fluctuations. My goal is to better explain the individualized experience of pain so that better targeted therapies and treatments can be made to help these populations.

I have extensive experience in fMRI neuroimaging studies and analyses as well as training in repetitive transcranial magnetic resonance (rTMS) stimulation. My future goals are to use the skills and methods I've learned during my graduate and postdoctoral trainings to establish my own lab exploring biomarkers and new treatments for migraine & other headache disorders as well as opioid use disorder.

I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at Emory University in Dr. Daniel Harper's Psychophysics and Imaging Neuroscience (PaIN) Lab

Outside of research, I spend my time hiking, developing science outreach resources and efforts, training in mixed martial arts, reading, playing video games, cooking, learning sign language, coding, and many other endeavors.
