Human Factors/Applied Cognition: Vigilance, Neural Resource Theory, Applied Neuroimaging (fNIRS & ERPs)

Currently, I am a 3rd year PhD student in the Human Factors and Applied Cognition program.

From a Neuroergonomics standpoint, I am interested in the mitigation of human fatigue through imaging and modulation methods, with an emphasis on trait-state interactions.

I have also led efforts to investigate a variety of domains of Human Factors problems, ranging from extended reality (XR), bilingualism, hand dominance, motor control, cybersecurity, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), to healthcare.
