CURRENT MISSION

To Meet Conspecifics

ABOUT ME

I was born in New York City, but I spent my childhood in La Paz, Bolivia. At the age of 12, I moved to the Washington, DC metropolitan area. I attended Princeton University, where I studied psychology and decided that I wanted to pursue a career as an academic psychologist. Currently, I am wrapping up my PhD in psychology at Harvard University. In July, I will join The Walt Disney Company as a decision science consultant.

Also, I'm an avid musician. I play bass guitar, double bass, guitar, piano, and drums. I have been known to sing on occasion.
