I am a research scientist at MIT Haystack Observatory. My research interests include radio detection of exoplanets, development of space-based radio telescopes, and CubeSats mission design and instrumentation for novel science applications.
I am currently deputy PI and PM for NASA-funded AERO-VISTA CubeSat mission. AERO-VISTA's science objective is mapping Earth’s auroral radio emission from low Earth orbit using two-spacecraft vector sensor interferometry. I am a NASA NIAC Phase I Fellow for GO-LoW (Great Observatory for Long Wavelengths). Previously, I served as project scientist and operations team member of ASTERIA CubeSat mission.
My PhD thesis research focused on interferometric imaging to search for Jovian-like radio emission from extrasolar planets. Thesis title: Toward Detection and Characterization of Exoplanetary Magnetic Fields via Low Frequency Radio Observation.
