I was born in Bethesda, MD, and grew up in the circumference of a hadron collider in Switzerland, in a valley between the Jura and the Alps.

I graduated from the University of Southern California in 2015 with Bachelor’s degrees in physics and math. I completed my doctoral studies at Princeton’s Department of Astrophysical Sciences in 2021, advised by Josh Winn. I continued my research as a 51 Pegasi b fellow at Caltech from 2021 to 2024, and I currently work as a Carnegie Fellow at the Observatories of the Carnegie Institution for Science, also in Pasadena, California.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, reading, and getting outside.
