I’m a final-year PhD candidate at the University of Melbourne, where I am researching the subjective experience of Visual Snow Syndrome.
Alongside my research, I teach advanced psychological research methods to fourth-year psychology students.
I was a 2023 Summer Intern at the Riken Center for Brain Sciences in Saitama, Japan.
I was the 2021 Media Manager for Students of Brain Research (SOBR) and the 2022 Media Manager on the early career researcher subcommittee of the Australasian Cognitive Neuroscience Society (ACNS). I am the 2023 Student Representative on the ACNS executive committee, and in 2024 I sit on the Inclusivity, Diversity, Equity, Accessibility subcommittee.
