I am a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellow researching music and fear (Project: EMUSIG) at the CANEURO lab at UZH. I recently completed my PhD in Music Theory at The Ohio State University. While there, I worked with David Huron as part of the Cognitive and Systematic Musicology Laboratory and taught undergraduate music theory and aural skills. My research interests include music and emotion (particularly fear), music and vocal affective cues, affective neuroscience, and applying topic theory to film music perception
