Recent graduate of the Department of Cognitive Science at Johns Hopkins University, where I studied language processing and human development. I'm looking to transition into the applied social sciences, to a position in which I can leverage my diverse research managment skills, my expertise in quantitative and graphical data analysis, and my enthusiasm for solving complex problems in the service of the community.
M.A. in Cognitive Science
Graduated: July 2016
My graduate research focused on language processing and language learning, investigating how experience and executive control effects linguistic behaviors such as reading, understanding, and producing language, on timespans of a few milliseconds to timespans of many years. My work primarily utilized eye tracking to investigate adaptation effects in filler-gap processing and childrens' processing of syntactic ambiguities.
B.A. in Language and Mind
Graduated: December 2012
My early interests in comparative literature and the folklores of different cultures led me to the study of human language and the science of learning, and to pursue a Bachelor's degree in Language and Mind, a joint major in the departments of Linguistics and Psychology, and a minor in creative writing.
