Srita Kothuri

Srita Kothuri is an ambitious and intellectually curious incoming third-year student at Santa Clara University (SCU), where she is pursuing a major in neuroscience and a minor in economics. Fascinated by the intersection between these two disciplines, she is keen on exploring how they can mutually enhance one another in unraveling the intricacies of human decision-making and behavioral tendencies within the context of the economy.

During the academic year, Srita is a research assistant in the Social Cognition and Comparison Lab at SCU, where she is currently conducting research regarding how individuals with narcissistic tendencies use social comparison in their daily lives. She has also recently joined her university’s Consumer Behavior Lab to further explore her interest in decision-making.
