I am a postdoctoral researcher at Northwestern University.  My Ph.D. work was done at Harvard University under Prof. Josh Grindlay, finishing in 2004. My research is focused on X-ray binaries, compact objects (such as white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes) accreting matter from a companion star.   I have focused in particular on X-ray binaries containing neutron stars in globular clusters, using the Chandra X-ray Observatory to collect and study X-rays from these objects.  I am also interested in planets, pulsars, and supernova remnants.
