I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the UC Davis Center for Neuroscience.  Before coming here, I completed a Masters in Physics and a PhD in Aerospace Engineering at the University of Michigan.  My current research is in complex systems; I study ant colonies and neural networks and build computer models to understand how different biological systems process information and adapt to their environment.

This site has information on my research:  here is my CV and current research, publications, recent conferences I’ve been to, and information on previous research projects that I’ve worked on.

I’ve also added a few (and keep meaning to add more!) blog posts about travel here.

Outside of research, you’ll find me playing flamenco guitar, mountain biking, backpacking, and drinking hoppy west coast beers.

Postdoctoral Scholar, UC Davis Neuroscience
