I am a graduate student with a joint appointment between Cardiff University and Northwestern University studying Gravitational Wave Physics. I am part of the LIGO Scientific Collaboration and work with Dr. Vicky Kalogera and Dr. Patrick Sutton. In particular, I am interested in how to create useful tools for the analysis of large data sets produced by LIGO, such as the millions of non-gravitational wave noise artifacts known as glitches. Gravity Spy (https://gravityspy.org/) and its creative approach to large scale data analysis is my current passion. I received my B.S. from the Northwestern University in Mathematics, Economics, and Classics. Outside of school I enjoy watching football, and am a die-hard Minnesota Vikings fan.
