I'm a third-year PhD Candidate at Northern Arizona University in the Department of Astronomy & Planetary Science. I received my B.A. from Cornell University (2021) in Astronomy, where I first discovered my passion for the space sciences. My main research interests are ocean worlds of the outer solar system because they are the best candidates for alien life. Outside of my career, I am an avid hiker/backpacker, climber, baker, and plant mom.
