I am currently exploring postdoc opportunities for 2026.
My research interests include:

- Human neuroimaging
- Risk & protective factors for neurodegenerative diseases
- Lifespan brain health & aging

If you're looking for a postdoc (or know someone who is) in these areas, I’d love to connect!
#Flux2025 was truly unforgettable!
Headed to #Flux2025? Stop by my and Abi’s posters! We're exploring how social and environmental factors as well as physical activity and fitness relate to brain structure and cognitive function in kids. If you're curious about temporal lobe development, or just want to say hi, we’d love to see you!
It’s been about a week since #AAIC25, and I’m finally taking a moment to reflect on what an amazing experience it was. I learned so much, had great conversations, and left feeling inspired by all the incredible work happening in the field. Grateful for the chance to be part of it all!
Catch me at poster #433 today at #AAIC25!
Excited to share my research this Tuesday at Poster #433. I’d love to see you there!

I’m also currently exploring postdoc opportunities for Fall 2026. If you're looking for a postdoctoral researcher or would like to connect, I’d be happy to meet and chat.
Honored to be selected as an Outstanding Scholar in Neuroscience by the NIH! Excited to connect with my fellow awardees and share my research!
Looking ahead to postdoc opportunities! If our research interests align and you're anticipating a postdoc opening in 2026, I'd love to connect. I'll be attending Neural, AAIC, Flux, and SfN—feel free to reach out if you're open to a chat!
I was reminded today that sometimes rest is a form resilience 🫶🏼
Sending out my fourth and final letter to my STEM penpal! A little sad that it’s over! Thank you to the Letter to a Pre-scientist organization for putting this all together! This has been such a cool experience that I hope to participate in every year!
Beyond the incredible science, the scenery in Salt Lake is stunning! During down time, we got to go on a few adventures!
What an amazing experience at #NeuroStats! World-class instructors, incredible resources, and so many new friends. If you’re curious about neuroimaging or genetics, this bootcamp is a must.

Happy International Day of Women and Girls in STEM to every woman and girl breaking down gender biases and defying stereotypes in fields where we’ve long been underrepresented. STEM is stronger and more innovative because we are here!

Before it is all taken down, a good reminder that the NIH has (or maybe had) an expansive definition of what constitutes diversity. So this means less participation by #womeninSTEM, #URMinSTEM, #disabledinSTEM, plus those that grew up rural, #firstgen, unhoused, or low-income.

Excited to have been selected to attend the Training in Advanced Statistical Methods in Neuroimaging and Genetics workshop hosted by the University of Utah this coming spring!
Hi all! I’m a PhD candidate at the University of Nebraska Medical Center studying brain development and Alzheimer’s disease risk factors. I’m looking for potential post doc opportunities in AD, epigenetics and related areas. If that sounds like your jam, I’d love to connect!
Honored to be named a Graduate Student of Distinction for my D-SPAN (F99/K00) award! Excited to study social and environmental determinants of health and their association with Alzheimer’s disease risk and resilience!
