Astrophysics, seismology, and condensed matter experiment are some of the many topics that interest me. Currently, I am working with Professor Joshua Winn of the MIT Kavli Institute for Astrophysics on research in the field of exoplanets, which are planets outside of our solar system. My current work tries to help us get a better sense of planet formation theories and unique characteristics of exoplanet/star systems. For those curious, a full listing of currently known exoplanets can be found in the Exoplanet Encyclopedia.
