I am a Ph.D. student in the College of Computing at Georgia Tech. I work in the Design & Intelligence Lab with professor Ashok Goel.
My research interests center on cognitive science and especially looking at the role of mental representations in guiding our understanding of atypical forms of cognition, and vice versa. My current work focuses on visual thinking in autism.
I hold a bachelor's degree in "Mathematics with Computer Science" from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. I have previously done work for Aerotonomy, Inc., a small advanced aerospace research firm in Atlanta, GA, and in the Environmental Sciences Division at Oak Ridge National Lab near Knoxville, TN.
