Hello! I am currently pursuing a PhD in Psychology at Michigan State University, and working in Dr. Devin McAuley's Timing Attention and Perception (TAP) Lab. I am broadly interested in auditory perception, and I am pursuing research on the relationship between music and language perception. In particular, I am interested in how pitch and rhythm in speech facilitate language comprehension and word learning; furthermore I aim to contribute to the understanding of the underlying neural mechanisms involved in language learning and real-time language processing.
