Professional Statement
I am a board-certified clinical neuropsychologist, with extensive experience conducting neuropsychological assessments for adult US military Veterans. I am also an active independent researcher and study/publish on various neuropsychological topics, including novel methods of detecting cognitive/functional decline, response validity, and neuropsychological assessment feedback.Selected Publications
