I am Research Assistant working with Bob Ergun and David Malaspina. My main research interest is in wave-particle interaction processes in various plasma environments. I am currently studying waves in the solar wind using Parker Solar Probe data. I have previously worked on particle acceleration in magnetic reconnection-driven turbulence in the Earth's magnetosphere using MMS data. Prior to joining the space plasmas research community, I was working in the field of solar physics. I did research on the statistics of solar active regions and on strong Ha emission profiles from active regions.
