About me

I am a dual-title PhD student in Earth and Space Sciences with Astrobiology at the University of Washington in Seattle. I work with my advisor Michelle Koutnik on glacial geomorphology in the mid-latitudes of Mars. With Tim Elam, I am part of the PIXL instrument team of the Mars Perseverance Rover. I graduated from the University of Chicago with Bachelors of Science with Honors in both Astrophysics and Geophysics in 2021. For my senior honors thesis project, I worked on modeling the formation age and erosion rate of young sedimentary rock on Mars with Edwin Kite as my advisor. Thanks for visiting my website! :)
