Advancing Brain Science
My research investigates neurodegenerative diseases, neurochemistry, and the brain-gut axis to uncover new pathways for brain wellness.
Empowering Communities
Through advocacy and the 'She Push' initiative, we provide tools for mental health awareness and create educational opportunities for women and girls.
The Scientist, The Educator, The Advocate
I have built my career at the intersection of science, education, and advocacy. My mission is to use science as a tool for empowerment, compassion as a guide for research, and education as the key to unlocking a more equitable and inclusive world.
Advancing the Frontiers of Neuroscience
My research investigates neurochemistry, neurodegenerative diseases, and the brain-gut axis to uncover new pathways for brain wellness. I am actively seeking collaborations with institutions and partners who share a passion for innovation and impact.
The 'She Push' Initiative
I founded ‘She Push’ to support one of our community’s most vulnerable groups: married, divorced, and widowed women. We provide a pathway for them to return to education, gain critical skills, and achieve the independence they deserve.
Where Knowledge Fuels Transformation
As a passionate educator and keynote speaker, I translate complex neuroscience into engaging, actionable insights for academic, corporate, and public audiences. I am committed to fostering dialogue on brain health, gender equity, and inclusive leadership.
