It's the website you're looking at right now! I wanted to make this version of my website interactive, responsive and fun to build. I think I succeeded on all those counts.
I like to work on meaningful challenges and have some fun along the way, combining my background in physics with my software engineering skills. In the past I've worked on particle detectors at CERN and ESA satellite missions, and I currently work in medical physics at the New York Proton Center.
I've had the good fortune to work with inspiring colleagues on truly impactful projects. Here is a short summary on my most recent positions.
Mar 2024 → Current
As part of the physics group, I help ensure that proton therapy patients receive their planned care. I also manage the center's software version control and am involved in several research projects.

I worked on a team to develop an interactive monitoring system for EarthCARE and Biomass, two ESA satellite missions that aim to measure and map changes in our planet's atmosphere and forests.

I worked on the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment to uncover impostor particle signatures, characterise photon showers and write performant data-acquisition code.
Particle physics Data science C++ Python PandasI'm passionate about learning and growing, evidenced by an education that is as varied as it is extensive. Here is a brief overview of my academic achievements, with some light reading in the form of my theses.
During my doctoral research, I found a way to unmask impostor particles that act like the particle we were actually after in our large-scale neutrino experiment. I also created low-level and performant data-acquisition code.
Sometimes I work on coding projects in my free time. Sometimes I even finish these projects. Here are the ones I am keenest to show off.

What neutrino physicist has not made their own neutrino oscillation calculations? I made mine into a responsive webtool to play with the oscillation parameters and see the results in real-time.
