About Me

Summary

In 2017, I completed a Bachelor of Science in Physics at Oklahoma State University. My thesis focused on the effects of slow noise in a laser with injected signal. After completed my undergraduate degree I moved to Fayetteville, Arkansas to pursue a Ph.D. in Space & Planetary Sciences with a concentration in Gravitational Physics. My dissertation topic covers LISA (Laser Interferometer Space Antenna) signal confusion noise generated from very highly eccentric extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs) called "peeps". I completed my dissertation defense in Spring 2024. More can be read about that under the research tab.
