I am an Associate Professor at Northwestern University in the Department of Physics & Astronomy, and a core astronomy faculty member of CIERA, Northwestern’s astronomy research center.
My research group and I unravel the mysteries enshrouding cosmic explosions, including gamma-ray bursts, fast radio bursts, and electromagnetic emission from gravitational wave sources. We also study their host galaxy environments to understand what conditions give rise to these phenomena.
We use observations using a large variety of telescopes spanning radio, optical, near-infrared, and X-ray wavelengths on the ground and in space. No wavelength is left behind!
I would not be where I am without my team members. Please see my team page for current and former group members!
