A picture of me standing on a planet that was likely formed in a protoplanetary disk
Welcome to my research website!
I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Advanced study in Princeton, NJ from September 2017 through August 2020. My research focuses on the hydrodynamics of protoplanetary disks and other kinds of astrophysical disks. See here for more information, or a list of my publications here.
I received my PhD from Cornell University, where I worked with my advisor Dong Lai, in 2017. Before that I studied physics at Arizona State University.
