About Me

My research focuses on the intersection of planetary geophysics and surfaces, specifically how lithospheric deformation can provide insight into a planet's interior structure and geomorphologic history. I use a combination of numerical modeling and remote sensing to study planetary tectonics and surfaces. I am currently a science team member in the VenSAR instrument on the EnVision mission to Venus and the SESAR-LITE mission to the Moon.

I earned my PhD from the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory at the University of Arizona in 2025 working Dr. Jeff Andrews-Hanna on placing constraints on the geophysical evolution of Sputnik basin in Pluto.

I graduated from Cornell University in 2020 with a B.S in Earth and Atmospheric Science with a Concentration in Planetary Science and a minor in Italian. During my undergraduate career, I was involved in a variety of research projects on Venus, Earth, and Comet 67P where I not only gained essential tools but learned the importance of interdisciplinary approaches in innovative research.

Beyond research, I enjoy hiking , am an amateur stargazer, and also an avid reader.
