I am an associate professor in the Department of Astronomy and Astrobiology Program at the University of Washington. I am also a member of the University of Washington's Data Science program. I study the habitability of exoplanets with astrophysical, geophysical, and atmospheric computer models.

I am the lead developer of VPLanet (list of contributors), a planetary evolution code with an emphasis on habitable planets. The code is open source, empowering you to simulate potentially habitable worlds, too!
