Hello, and welcome to my website!

I am an assistant professor in the Physics Department at Villanova University and an expert in high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy and spectral variability of black holes. My research focuses on black holes and neutron stars in the Milky Way galaxy. As an observational astrophysicist, I use space- and ground-based telescopes (Chandra, NuSTAR, JVLA, Gemini) to study the behavior of these extreme gravitational objects.

Here you can find information about me,  my research and group, my teaching, my publications, some of my most exciting results, and how to find me.
