My training at the University of Chicago prepared me to conduct world-class scientific research through technical skills, collaboration opportunities, and deep intellectual stimulation. During my time in the Hatsopoulos Lab at the University of Chicago, I felt supported to pursue a high level of academic and scientific rigor while cultivating strong connections that would serve me in a future academic career.

The sum of my experiences in the computational neuroscience program has permanently impacted my personal life and professional career; in fact, I use my skills in communication, research, project management, and quantitative analysis every day in my current job.
