I am a neuroscientist and author. I received a BA in Neuroscience with High Honors from Oberlin College (2010) and PhD in Neuroscience from the University of Washington, Seattle (2017). I have acquired an interdisciplinary research background in electrophysiology, microscopy, molecular biology, genetics, and computational modeling. My research goal is to elucidate the roles of intracellular organelles (such as mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum) in electrically excitable cells. I am additionally interes
My goals as an author are to (1) advance new visions of synaptic plasticity, and (2) to demystify science culture for the next generation of scientists.
