I am an early career researcher working on the genetic relationship between psychiatric disorders and cognitive functioning. Specifically, the relationship between cognitive impairment, educational attainment, major depressive disorder, and schizophrenia. I have been interested in human behaviour and mental health since my undergrad in Psychology and throughout my master’s in behavioural genetics. I have always been fascinated by the psyche and the brain and what drives us to behave the way we do and our deeply personal experiences of the world around us.
