Psychology
neural markers of psychopathology, neurodevelopment, stress

(she/her) I am a PhD student working with Dr. Ian H. Gotlib in the Department of Psychology. My primary research interests include the impacts of early adversity on adolescent brain development and the psychobiological mechanisms underlying risks for depression. Currently, I am focusing on the development of neural flexibility following exposure to early life stress. Prior to Stanford, I earned a BA in Neuroscience from Wellesley College and worked in clinical neuroimaging labs at MIT and Northeastern University.
