I am a graduate student currently working with Sylvain Veilleux at the University of Maryland. My primary interest is astrophotonics, focusing on instruments for ground-based optical and infrared telescopes. My previous experience focused on astrophotonic high-resolution spectrographs designed for exoplanetary science with Pradip Gatkine at UCLA. I am now interested in how astrophotonics can improve follow-up observations of gamma ray burst afterglows.
