I am a Doctoral Researcher in Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland, and a skilled statistician with a strong background in data analysis, visualization, and statistical modelling. My expertise includes statistical scripting, experimental design and simulation, data management, and machine learning techniques for classification of imbalanced data.
Early numeracy skills are foundational for later academic success, yet children often experience varied learning pathways due to a combination of factors. My research focuses on the intersectionality of neural, behavioural, and socio-emotional mechanisms underlying numerical cognition, learning, and skill development in the early school years. This research contributes to a better understanding of how brain activity, attentional patterns, and socio-emotional factors interact to shape children’s mathematical learning experiences and development, using machine learning and other rigorous data-driven methodologies.
