I am a researcher with a background in psychology and primatology, interested in the evolution of behaviour and cognition across species.

My work and field experience have included research on human cognition as well as behavioural studies of wild spider monkeys in Mexico and moor macaques in Indonesia.

My research interests lie at the intersection of evolutionary biology, animal behaviour, comparative cognition, human ethology, and primatology. I am particularly interested in the evolutionary origins of the human mind and in what comparisons between humans and other animals can reveal about the evolution of cognition and behaviour.

Through Sapiens Lara, I explore ideas about evolution, behaviour, cognition, primates, and the biological sciences.
