I am currently a postdoc in Dr. David Williams' lab at the University of Rochester studying ganglion cell function with adaptive optics and calcium imaging.
I received a Ph.D. in Neuroscience in the Neitz lab at the University of Washington where I studied color-coding retinal circuits in the primate retina. My research combined 3D reconstructions of retinal neurons from serial electron microscopy with single cell electrophysiology, computational models and human psychophysics.
