My Research

As a theoretical astroparticle physicist, I work on using Galactic dynamics to understand properties of Dark Matter. I use cosmological simulations, stellar catalogs, machine learning techniques, and a background of particle physics to build the first map of Dark Matter in the Milky Way.
