Research Areas
Supernovae
I study the brightest explosions in the universe, the ones that create many of the elements we need for life as well as tell us about the very history of the universe we live in.
Data Science
I'm an LSST-DA Data Science Fellow specializing in the study of large populations of supernovae. By studying these at a population level, we can answer questions like "How vast is the universe expanding?" and "How did the elements past Carbon get to the abundances we see them at today?"
High Performance Computing
I work with extreme amounts of raw image data, well over 100TB. To process this, I use the Illinois Campus Cluster and am a member of the Center for Astrophysical Surveys at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications
