Bio

TL;DR: Neuroscientist, artist and entrepreneur. Recently made a video about the ethical future of XR (check it out! https://youtu.be/wsJF1ugsfKI) Little bit about me: I'm currently a PhD candidate of Computational Neuroscience at Princeton University advised by Ken Norman and Chris Baldassano. Scientifically, I'm curious about how contexts (like those in VR/AR) shape the way we think and remember our day-to-day experiences. I've scanned dozens of people's brains and with machine learning effectively read their minds to further understand how the brain represents spaces and concepts. I'm also a filmmaker and have freelanced over many years as a composer, director, editor and producer. Recently started a YouTube channel to funnel some of my creative projects that work well under the aural-visual medium like augmented reality tutorials, abstract art, or cinematic concept pieces. My incoming interests include the intersection of neuro, AI and XR.
