Bio/Description

My research lies in the intersection of electronics and neuroscience, specifically in designing electrodes to detect neuronal signals. At Princeton, I have been on various panels to help international students and served as a Leader for the Outdoor Action program designed to mentor incoming first-year students.

As a coach, I would like to be a “thinking partner” and create a “safe space” where we can discuss whatever is on your mind. This could range from topics like relationships with peers and professors, perfectionism, procrastination, and goal setting to things like diversity & inclusion, issues pertaining to international students, etc. I believe together, we can strive to unlock your true potential in life, specifically as a grad student. As a first-generation international student in STEM, I am particularly interested in helping anyone going through issues pertaining to exceling in a different culture while striving to perform well in the highly competitive field of STEM.
