Welcome!

My research lies at the intersection of  particle physics and astrophysics and focuses on searching for new particles and forces beyond the Standard Model. I have developed novel strategies to detect leading dark matter candidates using astrophysical systems such as neutron stars, molecular clouds, and the early universe. I have also designed novel laboratory concepts for dark matter searches. I am also interested in understanding fundamental particle and wave interactions in extreme environments (e.g., high magnetic fields, temperatures, and densities) like those found around neutron stars and black holes. My work combines theory, computation, and experiment to uncover new ways of exploring the fundamental laws of nature.
