I am an NSF Graduate Research Fellow at the University of Washington pursuing a dual-title PhD in Astronomy and Astrobiology. My research focuses on modeling the atmospheres of potentially habitable exoplanets and detecting possible biosignatures. I am advised by Prof. Victoria Meadows and am a member of the Virual Planetary Lab.

Before attending UW, I graduated from Columbia University with a Bachelor's degree in Astrophysics. At Columbia, I worked with Prof. David Kipping in the Cool Worlds Lab researching exoplanet interiors. I was also actively involved in the undergraduate astronomy community and served as the President of Columbia Blueshift.

I spent a year at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Research Center as a research associate working with Dr. Avi Mandell and Dr. Ravi Kopparapu in the Sellers Exoplanet Environments Collaboration. While at NASA, I used 3D climate models to simulate observables for TESS's first Earth-size, habitable-zone planet.
