Overview
I am a Royal Society University Research Fellow studing exoplanetary systems. I am particularly interested in planet formation and the architecture and dynamics of planetary systems. I use JWST and ALMA observations combined with and numerical simulations to asnwer questions such as How do exocomets and exoplanets form? Where do exocometary belts form? How do planets shape exocometary belts? What is the composition of exocomets? Can they deliver volatiles to terrestrial exoplanets?
You can find my publications in ADS and arXiv.
