I am an Assistant Professor studying the atmospheres of exoplanets from terrestrial planets like the Earth to giant planets more massive than Jupiter. I earned Bachelors degrees in Physics and Earth, Atmosphere, and Planetary Sciences from MIT in 2010, and my PhD from University of California Santa Cruz in 2016. I've been at UT since 2018.
