A picture of me

I am currently a Research Associate in astronomy at the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics at the University of Colorado Boulder, starting in February 2022. My supervisor is Professor Kevin France.

My research focuses on ultraviolet observations of M dwarf and white dwarf stars, with the aim of improving our understanding of exoplanetary systems. In particular, I am part of the Mega-Muscles team producing panchromatic spectra of M dwarfs. The current best version of our TRAPPIST-1 SED is here.

You can find my publication list and CV at the top of the page, and my contact details and Github repo are below.

I also enjoy making stylised versions of scientific plots , mostly with the mplcyberpunk package.
