What I'm up to

  • 🔭 In summer 2024, I'm working in the RBC Amplify program as a software developer
  • 📝 I recently finished my honours Neuroscience thesis, which involved Bayesian modeling of human tactile perception and designing a Computer Vision program to automatically zoom, crop and temporally segment videos of participants performing an experiment.
  • 💬 Ask me about how our brains subconsciously use Bayesian inference (the topic of my honours thesis)
