Years in Lab: 2023-present

I graduated with honors from Stanford University in 2023 with a Bachelor of Science in Human Biology with a concentration in neuroscience. I joined the Autism and Developmental Disorders Research Program with Dr. Antonio Hardan in 2021 as an undergraduate, where I completed my honors thesis examining sex differences between males and females in autism and assisted with ongoing projects in neuroimaging. At the Parker Lab, I am coordinating the Vasopressin Treatment Trial for children with autism. I am excited to contribute to innovative research improving the lives of individuals with autism and their families and hope to eventually apply these practices to a career in medicine.
