Biography

I was born in Washington, D.C. I went to the University of Virginia for college, and worked at the Mass. General Hospital in Dr. David Caplan's Neuropsychology Laboratory during my summers. I graduated in 1995 with a B.A. in Cognitive Science. I spent a following great couple years in the Institute of Neuroscience and Bioimaging at the San Raffaele Hospital, Milan, Italy working with Drs. Perani and Cappa. I recommend living in Italy to everyone. I received my Ph.D. in Cognition, Brain, and Behavior in the Psychology Department of Harvard University. My advisor was Prof. Alfonso Caramazza. I did my post-doctoral work in Philadelphia at the Moss Rehab Research Institute and at the University of Pennsylvania, working with Dr. Myrna Schwartz and Prof. Sharon Thompson-Schill. Philly is also another great place to live. I moved further south (Houston) to work at Rice University and am now a professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University of Texas Health Science Center.
