About me
​
I am a researcher and instructor of human cognition, behavior, motor skills, brain activity, and development. Through multimodal approaches, I aim to understand how human movement and thought are connected across the lifespan. I am also interested in connecting my research to real-world support and improvement of the understanding of these aspects in various neurodevelopmental conditions such as Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD; Dyspraxia), and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

​I am currently based at the University of Basel, Switzerland as a postdoctoral researcher and lecturer in developmental psychology and sports science. I have been the PI of several funded research projects to understand the contributions of motor skills and cognitive processing within the dual-task framework in typically developing individuals as well as those with developmental disabilities. You can read more about these past and present projects here.
