Research

I'm primarily interested in black holes, gravity, machine learning (ML), and computational methods. I'm currently working with Prof. John Wise on the formation and evolution of direct-collapse black holes (DCBHs). I'm also continuing work on neutrino production from dark matter annihilation with the IceCube Collaboration at MSU.
