About Me

I am currently a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Georgia State University. I graduated from Georgia State University with a PhD in Psychology in the Cognitive Sciences program in 2023. I work with adults, children, rhesus macaques, and capuchin monkeys. My research focuses on comparative and evolutionary psychology, specifically looking at meta-cognition, category learning, and declarative cognition.
