My work focuses on the dynamic interactions between attention and value-based decision making. A key advantage of my research program is that it encompasses both ends of this relationship (i.e., how does attention influence choices, and how do choices influence attention?) I pursue these questions using a mixture of behavioral (choice data, eye-tracking, drift diffusion modelling) as well as neural measures (EEG, fMRI). By combining these different conceptual ideas and methodological tools, I strive to create a detailed map of how these cognitive systems are woven together in everyday life.
