Hello! I am a planetary scientist with a background in geomorphology, statistical analyses, and geophysical modeling. I study the Kuiper belt object, Haumea; cryovolcanism on Pluto's biggest moon, Charon; the internal structure of small asteroids; the geology and astrobiological potential of Jupiter's moon Europa; a potential mission to Venus called VALENTInE; and the diversity of exoplanets. If you are curious to know more, read on!
Projects
My work focuses on how Haumea's internal geophysical and geochemical evolution have changed its observable characteristics and shaped it into its present state.
Cryovolcanism on Charon: How and When?
This is a new project funded through the Solar System Workings program (NASA ROSES) in July 2021. I am the Science PI.
A short description of the work I've done on Europa's smallest observable features (prior to Europa Clipper imaging) and what they imply for Europa's subsurface structure.

Scientists are inherently storytellers, and people want to listen to stories. This is a collection of some stories I've told. Please see my CV for a complete list.
