I am conducting research in star formation, particularly into how turbulence decays in shocks. I am also involved in multiple large observing programs, including being the Ophiuchus region lead for the JCMT Transient Search for Variable Protostars for which I am developing the Python code to process and analyze the data. I have also taught a second year.

London, Canada Area

I was responsible for redesigning and teaching Astronomy 2801: observing the stars. I created the learning outcomes, assignments, quizzes, and finals. I also developed the tutorial sessions and supervised a teaching assistant in giving these tutorials. I created the lecture slides and gave all of the lectures for the course, as well as ran a drop in office.

Munich Area, Germany

I am engaged in astrophysical research including determining where turbulent energy goes in giant molecular clouds by studying MHD models of low velocity velocity and by observing shock tracing lines from both low and high mass star forming regions. I have also been involved in analytically studying gravitational collapse modes of different dimensional.

Leeds, United Kingdom

I continued to work on MHD shock modelling of turbulent dissipation and modelling the Orion-Eridanus superbubble. I also worked on observations of shock tracing lines in low and high mass star forming regions.

Victoria, Canada

I taught laboratory sections for both astronomy courses for first year non-science majors and for first and second year astronomy students. This also involved grading laboratory reports. I also previously marked quizzes and assignments for astronomy courses.

Calgary, Canada

I reduced and analyzed data on a pre-stellar core.

Calgary, Canada

I reduced riometer data indicative of auroral activity and searched for signatures of dispersionless injections.

Calgary, Canada

I took observations at the Rothney Astrophysical Observatory and reduced data on variable stars. I also created the algorithm to point the dome at the Rothney Observatory.

Calgary, Canada

I was a cashier.
