Hello! I'm Adam, a PhD Candidate in Biomedical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, where I conduct motor neuroscience research advised by Dr. Steven Chase and Dr. Aaron Batista. I received my B.S. in Bioengineering from the University of Pittsburgh in 2018. I'm affiliated with the Center for the Neural Basis of Cognition and CMU Neuroscience Institute.

​

My research focuses on how the brain translates increases in motivation to invigorated movements. I study the encoding of movement information in populations of motor cortex neurons during tasks where performance is modulated by varying cued rewards.

​

More broadly, I'm motivated by any problem solving that ultimately leads to helping others and involves fun computational methods.
