Hi! I’m curious about the world and keen to have fun describing it and being in it. I’m studying the earliest stages of disk evolution and structure in embedded protostellar disks. I use models to describe the protostellar disk structure for a series of ALMA-observed targets in the Ophiuchus star-forming region. We’re attempting to constrain the earliest stages of disk evolution and their possible implications for planet formation. Beyond my research, I like being outside whether it’s -20 C or +30 C to ski, climb, or surf. I’m also invested in making our department at Queen’s and the world at large a better place. I run the Gender Minorities in Physics Mentorship Program and represent the physics graduate students on committees and the CASCA GSC.
