I received my Ph.D. in Physics, working in an observational astronomy group of LSU's Department of Physics & Astronomy, under Dr. Tabetha Boyajian. I've done research in exoplanet and protostellar astrophysics. I've also done research in loop quantum cosmology, with Dr. Parampreet Singh. I've done extensive public outreach as an undergraduate, graduate student, and faculty member. In my free time, I do freelance illustration and also enjoy playing piano and classical vocal performance.
