My entire life has been influenced by the bridge between science and art. I graduated from UBC with a BSc in Cognitive Systems and was incredibly fascinated with learning about the relationship between our brain’s biological processes and behaviour. Simultaneously, I continued to develop my relationship with music as a composer and artist, and had always been fascinated by the role that music played in emotional regulation. This genuine curiosity as to how our brains process music and how music can be leveraged to help and supplement care in clinical populations, prompted me to pursue the incredible Graduate Program in Neuroscience at UBC.
