About me

I am a PhD. fellow at the New Mexico Inst. of Mining and Technology studying astrophysics. My research focuses on the radio emission from pulsars and how pulsars can be used as detectors of nHz-frequency gravitational waves. Concurrently, I work on understanding the galactic population of pulsars. My research advisor is Paul Demorest. In addition to my graduate studies, I work as a freelance science communicator, producing and editing educational multimedia content for the public. I currently work as a fact-checker for SciShow and develop novel public outreach techniques for presenting gravitational wave science for the NANOGrav collaboration.

I received my bachelors degree in Astronomy and Physics from Stony Brook University where I worked on classical novae and fast radio bursts. After graduating from Stony Brook, I worked as a research intern at Gemini North in Hawaii on high-redshift galaxy clusters.
