I'm a neuroscientist and Medical Science Liaison who believes science only matters when it reaches people. My work at Axsome Therapeutics sits at the intersection of cutting-edge sleep research and real patient outcomes — translating complex science into conversations that move healthcare forward.
Beyond the lab and the clinic, I've spent years cultivating the craft of communication. As a TEDx Speaker and Second Vice President of Toastmasters International, I've coached and inspired thousands on turning stage fright into a superpower, using the very neuroscience I study.
Rooted in a deep curiosity for how the brain works, I carry a strong conviction that better science communication is one of the most urgent needs of our time — and mental health advocacy, one of its most important applications.
