About Me
I graduated from the University of Notre Dame in 2005 with a dual-degree in Psychology and French Literature. As an undergraduate I worked in both Dr. Bradley Gibson’s Attention and Perception Lab focusing on perceptual orienting in visual search tasks and Dr. Robert West’s Cognitive Neuroscience Lab where I used ERPs to investigate the effects of aging and frontal function on the regulation of cognitive control. I moved to Georgia two years ago to join CoNTRoL. I received my Master's Degree in 2008 in Experimental Psychology from the Georgia Institute of Technology. I am currently a PhD candidate in the Cognition and Brain Sciences program at the Georgia Institute of Technology.

Current Research Interests
I am interested in using both behavioral and cognitive neuroscience techniques to study human cognition. Generally my focus is on learning and memory as they relate to skill acquisition and multi-task performance. More specifically I am interested in addressing the issues of implicit sequence learning from a cognitive processing perspective.
