Hello! I am a physics graduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison working on the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. I study the smallest particles in the universe that have the highest energies using a detector buried a mile underground in Antarctica all while sitting comfortably at my computer in Madison. I am passionate about data science and machine learning applications in astrophysics, and using data driven techniques to explain astrophysical phenomena. I have recently become more interested in using neutrinos to probe physics beyond the Standard Model, to learn more about the secrets of the universe that we have still yet to uncover.
Occasionally, I venture out of my natural physics habitat. I am originally from Buffalo, NY, and I love camping, cooking, playing music, and am probably more enamored with acapella than somebody of my age should be.
On this site, you can find lots of information about my physics interests, from outreach activities to the specifics of my research. If there is anything that you would like to hear more about, or if you are interested in obtaining some of my teaching materials or code, just shoot me an email.
