Where am I based? #
Currently, I am a fellow in the Department of Theoretical Physics at CERN, and loosely a member of the Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) subgroup.
What do I work on? #
My research program is dedicated towards understanding the fundamental laws and particles of nature. I go about this through a variety of means: I study possible new physics models, develop tools to characterize new dynamics, and explore analysis techniques for data collected at terrestrial experiments, such as colliders and beam dumps, as well as cosmological data sources, too. This kind of theoretical physics is called phenomenology, and it draws motivation from empirical evidence in the physical universe.
Experimental particle physics is deeply important in my approach to theoretical physics, and I often collaborate with experimentalists. This has lead me to be an active member of the Muon Collider collaborations, in both the US-based effort and the international collaboration.
Where was I before? #
was previously a postdoc at the MIT Center for Theoretical Physics, where I worked primarily with Prof. Jesse Thaler and Prof. Tracy Slatyer, and their other group members.
Before my time at MIT, I did my PhD at Harvard University under the supervision of Prof. Matt Reece (formally) and Prof. Matt Strassler (informally).
Before that, I was an undergraduate student at Cornell University, and worked briefly on the NA62 Experiment at CERN.
Where am I next? #
Good question! Maybe a hint would be found here.
Anything else? #
Good news; this whole website is about me. So if you have other questions, hopefully some of these other pages will have answers. Otherwise, please reach out to me over email.
