Personal Interests
Beyond medicine and research, some of my favorite past time activities are being a coffee enthusiast, writing creatively (mainly fantasy/sci-fi), dancing, and spending time with my loved ones. Though, realistically speaking, most of my free time is spent chasing my cat, Steve, all around my apartment (this is his most favorite activity).
Research Interests
The functional relationship between executive functioning and emotion regulation neural networks and its implications in psychiatric and neurodevelopmental conditions
