Through a fellowship funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) I worked closely with Dr. Matthew Benacquista to create an evolutionary code to model Double White Dwarf (DWD) binaries. We model compact objects, such as DWD binaries because they are important sources of gravitational waves at low frequencies. The upcoming space-based interferometer LISA will target these low frequency sources. By modeling compact objects, we can simulate the gravitational waves produced and predict expected signals. Our evolutionary code currently accounts for two types of star formation rates and non-mass transferring systems. Our code also includes a galaxy population simulation. Our galaxy population accounts for two density distribution functions. It is important to note that this project is one piece of a larger project known as the synthetic universe: http://syntheticuniverse.org

Through a fellowship funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) I conducted a dynamical and chemical analysis of a stellar moving group to determine cluster membership. I worked closely with a graduate student to operate the 2.1-m Otto Struve Telescope and use the Sandiford Cassegrain Echelle Spectrograph to collect data at McDonald Observatory in Fort Davis, Texas. I used image reduction and analysis facility (IRAF), a software written by National Optical Astronomy Observatory (NOAO), to analyze spectrum and derive radial velocities for the seven target stars. I used MOOG, an LTE line analysis and spectrum synthesis code, to derive elemental abundances.

I was a tutor for both the mathematics and physics departments at the university. I helped students understand class material and work through difficult problem sets. For the mathematics department, tutored students at all levels from basic algebra through differential equations. For the physics department, I tutored students in an introductory physics course. I was also responsible for the physics lab set up and take down.
