My time and efforts are primarily devoted to being a full-time doctoral student. As an astrobiologist, I develop code to analyze "big" data in an effort to research the habitability of exoplanets and their potential to host life. You can read more about my work on my research page.

I also have these things called hobbies!

• Nature Photography. It was microphotography that first won me over, but there's now a soft spot in my heart for landscape imagery.

• Botany. Succulents, veggies, herbs, tropical, bonsai, I'm about it. 

• Cooking. Mostly soup...but also anything and everything!

• Music. I am a novice guitarist, singer, and I enjoy rapping. I'm okay, let's just say there's room for improvement.

• Outdoor Activities. Including but not limited to camping, kayaking, SCUBA diving, hiking...I just really like being outside. :)
