Research Interests

I am a graduate student in the Department of Astronomy. I am broadly interested in both the observation and theory of black hole binaries of all scales. My research has been focusing on multimessager massive black hole binaries and their observation in time-domain survey (LSST, Roman) and detectability as gravitational waves in LISA/PTA. Recently, I am also interested in the physics of stellar-mass black holes and their interactions with stars in AGN disks. I conduct my research both by using computational methods and by creating theoretical models.
