I am a researcher in radio astronomy studying the variable radio sky. I am the Breakthrough Listen project scientist for the 64m Murriyang radio telescope at the Parkes observatory. Additionally, I study synchrotron radio transients ranging from black hole X-ray binaries to tidal disruption events and fast X-ray transients. I regularly observe with the Allen Telescope Array, and am involved in developing its observing capabilities.

I am a Dennis Sciama Junior Research Fellow at Wolfson College, Oxford.

Research interests

Astrophysics, Radio Transients, Interferometry
