I am a postdoctoral fellow at
Carnegie Observatories in Pasadena,
California.
I earned my Ph.D. from
The Ohio State University in July 2023,
and my Bachelor's from
Vanderbilt University.
Hailing from the American midwest, my fascination with space
began during my childhood and was nurtured by rural Nebraska's
dark skies.
Coming from a family of healthcare providers, I began my
undergraduate career studying pre-medicine before pursuing
astrophysics.
Beyond astronomy, I enjoy traveling, cooking, playing video
games, watching sports, and playing guitar.
I am also a fluent German speaker, and I enjoyed living and
studying in Berlin in 2016.
