Overview

I grew up in Buffalo, NY and attended RIT, where in May 2020 I received a B.S. in physics with minors in astronomy and mathematics. After becoming interested in cosmology, I joined UF in August 2020. My hobbies include running, skiing, and waiting for the Bills to win a Super Bowl.

Education
  • Master of Science, Physics, University of Florida, 2022
  • Bachelor of Science, Physics, Rochester Institute of Technology, 2020

Research

My research interests include cosmology and large-scale structure. I have worked on an analytic covariance matrix template for the 2-, 3-, and 4-Point Correlation Functions, showing what causes the sparse structure of the covariance. Along the way, I became interested in finding analytic results for triple-spherical Bessel function integrals. Currently, I am using DESI data to study parity violation in LSS.

Areas of Study
