I am a graduate student in Physics at Arizona State University. I have an undergraduate degree (also in Physics) from San Francisco State University. I am broadly interested in the emergence of languages, symbols, communication channels, the development of dynamics of cultural systems, but my primary interest is in the evolution of evolvability. I am currently studying the origin of life, I am trying to understand major transitions in chemical evolution that facilitated progressively more sophisticated information processing in (nearly) biological systems.
