About Me

I am a fourth year PhD student in the physics and astronomy department at the University of Rochester. My primary research interests involve the formation and evolution of molecular cloud cores, in particular the role of protostellar feedback in providing turbulent support. My primary research tool is an AMR code called AstroBear. AstroBear was and continues to be developed here at the University of Rochester where my primary contributions have been on corner transport upwind along with the Stone and Gardiner constrained transport algorithm as well as the addition of Sink Particles.
