I am a music theory master's student whose work investigates how musical structure shapes perception in real time. My academic path began in journalism and early music cognition, leading to international conference presentations and a peer-reviewed publication. Over time, my interests expanded toward computational modeling, culminating in the development of a multimodal research framework that synchronizes harmonic analysis with EEG, audio, and behavioral data streams. This system grew out of both my earlier research in generative approaches to musical structure and my industry experience as a UX/Sound Designer, where I created cognitively optimized auditory alerts. Currently at UMass Amherst, I continue to integrate music theory, signal processing, and human-centered design to examine how harmonic motion, attention, and emotional response interact within dynamic listening environments.
