Majoring in Psychology and PhilosophyÌý

Research Interests: I am very interested in the effects of cannabis on memory and problem-solving tasks, especially in chronic users. I am also fascinated by the use of alternative therapies, such as psychedelic interventions and mindfulness-based approaches, to treat PTSD and depression.Ìý

Responsibilities: In Spring 2024, I will be working as an undergraduate research assistant for the COBRA team, and as a member of the newsletter team.

About me: I was born and raised in Fort Worth, Texas, and now a junior here at CU Boulder. In my free time you’ll find me playing basketball, rock climbing, snowboarding, reading a book, or spending time with friends.
