I am a theorist and exoplanetary scientist, with a background in physics and astronomy. My research generally focuses on modeling exoplanet atmospheres to learn how we can better constrain their properties through observations. I’m interested in the effects that clouds have on the climate structure of different planets, and how we can improve our models to better understand aerosols in general. I'm also curious about how the environmental conditions of a planet, such as stellar behavior and disk composition, can affect its evolution, through processes like atmospheric escape and gravity darkening.
