I'm a senior at UCSD studying Cognitive Science (Machine Learning and Neural Computation) with a CS minor. At the Chiba Lab, I work on building and deploying multimodal biosensor systems to study how the autonomic nervous system shapes children's behavior and learning. Learning about the brain and body has also become a personal journey. Understanding how my own brain works is part of what pulls me toward neurotech, wearables, and the tools that make the invisible measurable. That interest runs deep into signal processing too: good research depends on clean, accurate data, and I find a lot of meaning in the work of making noisy physiological signals actually usable.
