Biography

I received my BA from SUNY ESC in Asian Religions, my MA from John F. Kennedy University in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology, and PhD from Union Institute and University in Cognitive Neuroscience and Asian Philosophy. My interests are the nature of consciousness, nonduality, and the global and local theories of consciousness. I research the effects of meditation on visual perception, emotion and the functioning of anti-correlated networks in the brain. I am a long-term practitioner of meditation in the Tibetan Buddhist traditions of Dzogchen and Mahamudra and the Hindu tradition of Advaita Vedanta.
