Psychologist with a Master’s degree in Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience. My research focuses on memory processes and creative thinking, particularly the relationship between episodic memory and divergent thinking, as well as the effect of collaboration in autobiographical memory and divergent thinking. I also investigate developmental differences in these processes from childhood to adulthood.
