Cognitive Neuroscience Consultant | Auditory Perception, Experimental Design, and Human Behavior Research

Profile Summary

I am a scientist specializing in auditory perception and cognitive neuroscience. My research examines how people interpret complex auditory environments, including identifying sound sources, recognizing environmental settings, and perceiving global properties of scenes. In my current position, I am examining methods for enhancing speech in noise processing in veterans with traumatic brain injury using neuromodulation (taVNS). I have experience in experimental design, EEG/ERP data collection and analysis, behavioral data analysis and visualization, and scientific writing. I have also mentored undergraduate researchers and taught courses in psychology.
