I am a postdoc working on the LIGO experiment. My recent work includes searching for an anisotropic stochastic gravitational-wave background, looking for intermediate-duration gravitational-wave transients, and managing LIGO's hardware injections. My interests include astrophysics, cosmology, gravitational waves, and neutrinos. My CV and a list of publications are available on my website.
