Research Interests
The primary focus of my research is observational cosmology. I specialize in precision measurements of redshifted 21-cm emission of neutral hydrogen and the temperature and polarization anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background. My experience includes instrumentation development and data analysis, spanning ground-, balloon-, and satellite-based platforms
