Hi! I’m a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Computational Astrophysics (CCA) at the Flatiron Institute. I study the dynamics of the Milky Way and its satellite galaxies to understand how dark matter is distributed in the galaxy. To do this I make idealized N-body simulations and analyze zoom-in cosmological simulations, such as FIRE or Auriga. I also use Basis Function Expansions to understand the out-of-equilibrium dynamical regimes of Dark Matter halos.
