Hello! 👋

I am a postdoctoral research scientist in the School of Teaching and Learning at the University of Florida.

My research examines the cognitive processes that shape numerical understanding — especially how learners build on what they already know to accommodate new mathematical concepts. I study how these skills develop across age groups and how AI-mediated learning environments shape that development, with the goal of building educational technology that reflects how people actually think and learn.

I earned my Ph.D. in the Department of Psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where I was a member of the Cognitive Development and Communication Lab.
