I am a Miller Fellow in the UC Berkeley department of astronomy.  I study planet formation by observing the gas and dust in the disks around young stars, mostly using   (sub)millimeter interferometers like the SMA and CARMA.  For more information, including short descriptions of several recent projects, see my research page.  
 
Before arriving at Berkeley I completed my PhD in the Harvard astronomy department, working with David Wilner and the rest of the SMA disk group.  Before that, I was an undergraduate at Yale University.
