🌎WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
I think your story matters! In fact, I believe the experiences and environments we are exposed to is fundamental to who we become and how we behave (observational learning was initially demonstrated in Bandura's Bobo Doll experiment1). Below are professional environments I've been exposed to, and research conducted in these spaces.

Since moving to NYC at the beginning of 2024, I have also been involved with setting up the new lab:
- Ordering, installing, and calibrating new lab equipment: 2 vehicle simulators, 2 free-motion simulators, 2 motion capture systems, LANs for real-time synchronization.
- Designing lab space for human subjects experiments, developing lab name and logo, and creating lab space use documentation.
- Coordinating with building managers, administration, technology manufacturers and equipment suppliers.
- Interviewing potential undergraduate and graduate candidates for research lab positions.
