About
My research is on searching for continuous gravitational waves coming from rapidly spinning non-axisymmetric neutron stars. I am a member of the LVK Collaboration, and I work with data collected by The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). My work involves performing all-sky searches for such signals as well as building new tools for more efficient and deeper searches through refined algorithms and new hardware like GPUs.
