About me

I am an astrophysicist interested in the formation and evolution of planetary systems. Currently, I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Observatoire de la Côte d’Azur studying the formation of the Solar System, as a member of the HolyEarth project.

I recently finished my PhD at Caltech working with Konstantin Batygin on the topic of exoplanet formation and orbital dynamics. Using the tools of celestial mechanics, we’re able to work backwards from observed systems to reconstruct how planets around other stars formed and evolved. During my undergraduate at UChicago, I worked with Daniel Fabrycky to detect and characterize circumbinary planets.

Outside of work, I’m active in Caltech Astronomy Outreach and my hobbies include skiing and jazz piano.
