My journey in neuroscience began at Colgate University, where I pursued a Bachelor of Arts in Neuroscience and a minor in Economics under the supervision of Dr. Spencer Kelly and Dr. Jun Yoshino, focusing primarily on Schizophrenia and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. I graduated in 2021 with Summa Cum Laude, High Honors in Neuroscience, and was elected to the Phi Beta Kappa honors society. I then pursued a Master of Science in Neuroscience at University College London, graduating in 2022 with Distinction. While at UCL, I worked as a Visiting Scientist at The Francis Crick Institute in the De Strooper/Arancibia Lab, where, under the supervision of Dr. Cara Croft, I developed autophagy sensors for neurons and glia to examine the effects of tau aggregation. Currently, I am a PhD candidate in Clinical Neurosciences at the University of Cambridge under the supervision of Dr. Maura Malpetti. My research focuses on correlating in vivo inflammation measurements with post-mortem signatures in frontotemporal lobar degeneration, with a specific interest in frontotemporal dementia.
