My interests are quite broad, but generally speaking I'm a theorist who specializes in the study of High energy phenomena associated with Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) from a plasma physics perspective. Specifically, I focus on the fundamentals of particle acceleration to understand the most energetic observables, whether photons, cosmic rays, or neutrinos. I use theoretical tools, first-principle plasma PIC simulations, and MHD simulations to study these phenomena depending on their relevancy.
