I am a computational astrophysicist and Research Assistant Professor at Northwestern University’s Center for Interdisciplinary Exploration and Research in Astrophysics (CIERA). I am also Assistant Professor at Universidad Adolfo Ibañez (UAI) in Santiago, Chile.

My research interests cover diverse aspects of planet formation and dynamics, as well as the formation and evolution of stellar binaries. My areas of expertise include numerical methods for direct hydrodynamical simulations, few body gravitational dynamics, planet and binary migration, astrophysical fluid dynamics and sub-millimeter interferometry.  I am also interested in data mining, time series  and Bayesian statistics.

I was a CIERA/Cottrell Prize fellow at Northwestern (2017-2021), and before that, a Research Associate at Cornell University (2013-2016). I earned my PhD in Astronomy & Astrophysics from Harvard University in November, 2013.
