Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ. BA, December 2006. Major:    Psychology

UC SAN FRANCISCO San Francisco, CA (August 2007-present) Staff Research Associate II, Depts. of Neurology & Physiology, Adam Gazzaley MD, PhD

Coordinated analysis stream across several fMRI studies. Significantly contributed to all aspects of several experiments, including: study design, data collection, developing analytical tools, data analysis, interpretation and manuscript composition. Contributed largely to analysis tool library (i.e., MATLAB script collection). Refined and improved functional connectivity analysis techniques. Explored novel multivariate analysis methodology such as Independent Component Analysis of fMRI data and Multi Voxel Pattern Analysis. Introduced the novel technique of simultaneously recorded EEG-fMRI to the lab. Major research techniques: Functional and structural MRI (3T) analyzed with SPM5, FSL, GIFT and custom scripts. Behavioral testing. BrainAmp MR (32 Channel). Magstim TMS coil.

UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN Ann Arbor, MI (January 2007-July 2007) Research Assistant, Chronic Pain & Fatigue Research Center, Daniel Clauw MD

Investigated manipulation of loci of control as a possible intervention for Fibromyalgia patients. Collected data and operated noxious stimulus delivery system. Performed fMRI data analysis. Major research techniques: MRI (4T) analyzed with SPM5. Unix databases.

WAYNE STATE UNIVERSITY Detroit, MI (December 2006-June 2007) Research Technician, Psychology, Behavioral & Cognitive Neuroscience, Ava Senkfor PhD

Utilized MATLAB to develop programs to satisfy the requirements of the PI. Goals were delineated and then code was composed independently. These requirements were related to the compilation and visualization of data from behavioral and/or imaging studies, as well as tools that facilitated the organization or simplification of data. Additionally, performed data collection and assisted in the analysis and interpretation of data.

Major research techniques: computer programming with MATLAB. Behavioral testing.

ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY Tempe, AZ (January 2006-December 2006) Research Assistant, Social Cognition Lab, Psychology, Douglas Kenrick PhD

Utilized eye-tracking to monitor visual attention in response to primed social goal-states. Collected eye-tracking and survey data. Assisted with analysis and interpretation of data. Major research techniques: Eye-tracking. Behavioral assessments.
