Scientific Interest


My research focuses on large scale structure of the universe and cosmology using large astronomical surveys, with an emphasis on the use of galaxy clusters and weak lensing to probe dark matter and dark energy. I also have an interest in Near Earth Objects that have a potential for colliding with the Earth. I currently work on the Dark Energy Survey (DES), the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), and the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) projects.
