About

I hold a Ph.D. in Cognitive Science from Indiana University Bloomington with a background in behavioral and cognitive neuroscience. I completed my M.A. (History and Philosophy of Science) at Indiana University Bloomington, and my M.A. (Applied Ethics and the Professions: Biomedical and Health Ethics) and B.A. (Hons.) (Psychology) from Arizona State University.

My current research focuses on evaluating and improving methodologies for establishing more valid psychiatric diagnostic groupings that may help to identify and test pharmacologically relevant pathways as novel targets for psychiatric treatment.

In addition, I host and produce the SCI PHI Podcast, a philosophy of science podcast featuring interviews with philosophers of science who engage with scientists in interesting ways.
