Research interests:

Currently, my research is focused on the search for longer-period transiting exoplanets through finding single transit events in TESSLink opens in a new window data and performing follow-up observations with NGTS. I perform simulations, generating exoplanet transit signals and using the noise properties of real TESS lightcurves to estimate the detection sensitivity of TESS to longer-period transiting planets. These simulations will eventually be used to calculate an expected yield of long-period exoplanets from TESS.

I am also involved in the vetting of TESS monotransit candidates as part of the NGTS monotransit working group.

Other interests:

I'm passionate about Outreach and science communication, I assisted with the science fair outreach event as a volunteer at the National Astronomy Meeting (NAM) 2022Link opens in a new window.

I enjoy amateur night sky observing, including with Warwick's own student led Astronomy societyLink opens in a new window, of which I was social secretary (2020-2021) during my undergrad, and with which I continue to help out as a postgraduate.

I maintain an amateur enthusiasm for paleontology and occasionally read the latest scientific literature on the subject.
