I am an Assistant Professor and planetary scientist at the University of Central Florida Department of Physics. I am interested in planetary habitability from an atmospheric evolution and climate modeling perspective. I study the atmospheres of the rocky planets in our solar system (Venus, Mars, Earth, Titan..etc) and use this knowledge to infer potential habitability for those planets as well as exoplanets.I have developed climate models used to recalculate the edges of the traditional liquid water habitable zone, warm early Mars with various greenhouse gases, and study the evolution of Earth's climate due to gradual increases in CO2. More details regarding my work can be viewed on my website (https://habitableplanets.wordpress.com/).
