I'm a research & data scientist. Before switching to industry, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Pennsylvania and Temple University investigating how people learn the structure of the world around them.
I got my PhD in experimental psychology and cognitive neuroscience from the University of Toronto, where I explored how naturalistic experience is reflected in behavior and represented in the brain across the lifespan. Prior to that, I completed a BSc in Psychology at University College London.
I love figuring out answers to questions using data and experimenting with new visualizations.

My work

I love uncovering underlying patterns through data analysis and visualization. Many of these were code-generated and some were made manually. Below, you can explore some of my spatial dataviz, data visualization and information design, and data analysis.
