Research Interest

I work in particle astrophysics studying astrophysical phenomena at the highest energies with the VERITAS gamma-ray observatory. I work with VERITAS, as well as a new prototype dual-mirror prototype telescope (the SCT), to perform multimessenger astronomy, as well as to study beyond the standard model physics, such as searches for axion-like particles, and extreme astrophysical processes, such as blazar jets.

I’m a proud member of our student workers’ union, UAW Local 2710, and was a member of the bargaining committee which won our first ever contract.
