I'm a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Institute of Astrophysics, Foundation for Research and Technology - Hellas (IA - FORTH) in Heraklion, Greece. My research passions include supermassive black holes, gravitational waves, and multi-messenger astrophysics. These topics were central to my PhD dissertation, titled "Seeing Double: Preparing for Multi-Messenger Detections of Supermassive Black Hole Binary Systems". As a member of the NANOGrav collaboration, I'm invested in detecting and characterizing gravitational waves emitted by these gargantuan binaries, as well as developing host identification and other electromagnetic follow-up observation strategies.

I'm a recent Astrophysics PhD graduate from Vanderbilt University. I successfully defended my thesis in June, and now have the great honor of being the first in my family to earn a doctorate degree! (If you're interested in the thesis work itself, you can read more about it on my research page.)
