| Curriculum Vitae | ||
| Welcome! I am a post-doc in the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics at Penn State University. Prior to working at Penn State, I was an NRC Research Associate at the Naval Research Lab in Washington DC. | ||
| My current research uses high-resolution spectroscopy from the visible to the thermal infrared to study (1) the atmospheres of giant exoplanets and (2) star formation in the solar neighborhood. For more information, see my CV or the list of publications below. | ||
