Welcome to my website! I am a postdoctoral associate in Earth, Atmospheric & Planetary Sciences at MIT. My primary research seeks to understand planet formation by way of simple theoretical descriptions of planetary dynamics. Starting in September 2022, I will be a high school Physics teacher at Commonwealth School in Boston. Though this is an exciting career change, I’m still happy to talk science related to my published work with anyone interested.
