Biosketch As an undergraduate, I am grateful to have had exposure to different research labs at the University of Arkansas. My freshman year I assisted in the Bio/Nano Technology Group at the Institute for Nanoscience and Engineering researching cellulose nanocrystals as a biomaterial in electro-optic applications. A year later, I joined the Developmental Cognitive Affective Psychophysiology lab, where I assist in collecting EEG data from human subjects. This data is used to develop neural correlates that underlie several self-regulation strategies.
