I'm a PhD student at the University of Michigan Functional MRI Laboratory studying novel acquisition and reconstruction techniques for silent functional MRI under the advisory of Drs. Doug Noll and Jeff Fessler. I also have previous experience working with perfusion imaging via arterial spin labeling (ASL) under the supervision of Dr. Luis Hernandez-Garcia, and magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) under the supervision of Dr. Jesse Hamilton during my PhD rotations at MIITT. My interests include non-cartesian k-space trajectory optimization and spatiotemporal model-based image reconstruction techniques. In my free time, I also coach and compete in olympic weightlifting!
