Hello! I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Waterloo, where I direct the Vision and Cognition Lab.

Our lab investigates various aspects of perception and cognition, with a particular focus on the perception of other minds and the visual roots of social cognition. For example, we are investigating how our perceptual system is well-tuned to extract others' mental states, and how the attention of other people can influence our own attention, as well as other processes such as person impressions and moral judgments. We are also exploring how we can perceive not just others’ perceptual and cognitive states, but also their metacognitive states such as awareness, confidence, or uncertainty — and how such impressions facilitate communication and collaboration.

Prior to joining UW, I obtained my Ph.D. at Yale University and was a Research Fellow at University College London.
