About Me

I am a Long-term Postdoctoral Fellow at the Center for Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics (CCAPP) at The Ohio State University.

My Research

My research interest is in understanding the nature of Dark Matter and related to that the underlying structure of our Universe. I am further interested in the highest energies realized in the cosmos. How does nature create conditions to accelerate particles to such enormous energies as they have been observed? To find the answer what is going on in the most violant or hottest regions in the universe, we sometimes have to travel to some of the coldest.
