Fourth year Cognitive Sciences Ph.D. student at UCI, working with Joachim Vandekerckhove and Jeff Rouder.

Hello! Thank you for visiting my personal website!

My name is Adri, I’m a 30 year-old grad Ph.D. student at the Cognitive Sciences department of the University of California Irvine. During my time there, I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to work with Jeff Rouder, Michael D. Lee and Joachim Vandekerckhove, (words cannont express how lucky I am!).

As a Cognitive Scientist, I am interested in the application of Bayesian methods.

As a sentient being, I choose to believe that happiness begins with a touch of kindness.

Ice breakers (?)

  1. My favorite ways to hangout with friends is playing boardgames and exploring new places to eat!
  2. I am really into ASMR, it helps me sleep when I’m under a lot of stress.
  3. I have a strong interest in making statistics as accessible as possible.
