About: 

I received my Bachelor's Degree from McGill University in Psychology with a minor in Music Technology. I subsequently worked in the Neurology and Neuroscience Department at the Weill Cornell Medical College. My interests lie mainly in the realm of auditory processing: How do we identify the sounds that we hear? How does this process evolve over time? Why are speech and music signals so unique for humans? What neural/cognitive processes are shared between music and language? Why does music make us feel emotions?
