Biography

A.B. Physics and Astrophysics, Harvard University, 2020

I'm a 4th year PhD candidate interested in all things binary stars! I've previously worked on constrain binary evolution through gravitational waves and asteroseismology, but recently have turned towards using positions and kinematics of stars and compact objects. You can use my open-source codes LEGWORK (to study LISA sources) and cogsworth (to do self-consistent population synthesis and galactic dynamics).
