As of August 2025, I currently serve as a postdoctoral research fellow in the Vanderbilt University Medical Center Music Cognition Laboratory and maintain TN state licensure as an ASHA-certified pediatric audiologist (CCC-A). In May 2015, I graduated from the University of Connecticut with my Bachelor of Arts degree in Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences and Psychology (Honors Scholar; Summa Cum Laude). I recently earned my Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree in May 2024 through the Vanderbilt Graduate Department of Hearing and Speech Sciences, after obtaining my Vanderbilt School of Medicine Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) degree in May 2019 on the pediatric specialty track for management of childhood hearing loss. Over the next several years, I intend to continue my career as a translational clinician-researcher, with a specific focus on child development, early intervention, newborn hearing screenings, aural rehabilitation, assistive technology, auditory neuroscience, psychosocial skills/language growth for youth with hearing loss, advocacy for families with multiple disabilities, and enhancing healthcare access to underserved communities.
