Research

To date I have completed research to refine exoplanetary ephemerides using data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), and I am currently working on simulations of exoplanetary atmospheres for ESAs upcoming medium class mission, ARIEL.

Here I am focussing on an as-yet understudied exoplanet population - cold gas giants - with the aim to understand how the physics that governs these planets differs from the hotter brethren and what differences, if any, exist between their formation and migration channels.
