I completed a B.Sc. and an M.A at the Sagol School of Neuroscience at Tel Aviv University. My M.A thesis was on the impact of imagery on human movement, which sparked my initial interest in the evolution of imagination. I have an extensive educational and speaking background, including teaching in the neuroscience program for excellent high-school students at the Davidson Institute (part of the Weizmann Institute of Science). I also taught at the EMIS international school for Israeli, Palestinian and international students, dedicated to promoting a dialogue of peace in the region. I was the initiator and teacher of a unique academic course within the Sagol School, in which students took part in shaping “the university of the future”. As part of this course, the students developed an interactive study space within the university that they operated for several years (up until COVID). Before starting on my academic path, I studied in a circus school, and performed and taught dance, yoga and acrobatics for several years. During my PhD I have given several conference talks on my research, attended relevant summer schools, and have recently spent a term as a visiting student at the HPS department at Cambridge University.
