I am a Research Engineer at the Semantic Cognition Lab where I am primarily involved in functional MRI data collection and analysis to study how our brains represent languages and concepts. I have experience in electronics, Data Science, and clinical/research stakeholder engagement. Along with my interest in the brain's immense potential to influence our abilities and personalities, I also like playing badminton, swimming, hiking, photography, painting, reading, and watching movies. 

Eric is a clinical research coordinator with a M.S. in Psychology from Northern Michigan University and a B.S. in Psychology from Wisconsin Lutheran College. In the Semantic Cognition Lab, Eric helps with the coordination of the lab by screening and recruiting participants, scheduling appointments, and collecting data along with any other tasks that the lab needs. During his spare time, Eric enjoys listening to neuroscience and psychology podcasts, playing Magic the Gathering, and spending time in nature. 

I’m a neuroscientist fascinated by how the brain stores and uses information. I enjoy exploring challenging questions about the brain and finding creative ways to understand how it works.
