• Vice President

  • Mar 2020 - May 2021

  Beta Beta Beta (Tri-Beta) is an academic fraternity for students studying the biological sciences. As Vice President, I am responsible for all aspects of organizing events to promote interest in both the study of and research in biology. This includes community outreach as well as campus-wide events. I act as a liaison between biology faculty and students. I am particularly interested in reaching out and promoting STEM majors to women. I also use the platform to show students the variety of careers that can be explored with a degree in biology.

Speech and Cognition Research Laboratory

• Research Assistant

  • Oct 2018 - May 2021

  As a member of the Speech and Cognition Research Laboratory (SCog Lab), I have spent years learning about perceptual learning of degraded auditory signals, audiovisual speech perception, cochlear implants, and psychophysiology. The lab has exposed me to numerous techniques of data collection such as EEG, ERP, EOG, eye tracking, and fNIR. As a research assistant, I have collected data and worked with the lab director to improve data collection techniques. I have helped test a novel, multi-day, targeted training paradigm for new cochlear implant users. This training paradigm focuses both on the higher level (context, syntactic) and lower level (word identification, phoneme discrimination) linguistic aspects of speech, in addition to other paralinguistic aspects of speech (talker identification) and domain-general auditory abilities (environmental sound identification).

• Chemistry Laboratory TA

  • Sep 2018 - Dec 2018

  As a teaching assistant, I was responsible for maintaining an instructive atmosphere in the lab. I also worked closely with my instructor and assisted students with experiments and analysis. I reviewed and graded lab reports weekly which required me to have a high level of organization to provide feedback to the students promptly.
