Interests
In general, I am interested in the formation and evolution of exoplanets. I am currently approaching this problem from two directions: from the start and from the end. My main thesis focuses on the start of planet formation, considering protoplanetary disks and the steps that lead dust grains to accrete into protoplanets. I also work on exoplanet demographics, using the population of outer gas giants to teaser out important processes in planet formation and evolution. Beyond these projects, I am generally interested in interesting problems relating to exoplanets and solar system objects, typically dynamics focused, but not always. In the past I have worked on Uranus’ rings and disintegrating ultra-short period planets. ...
