I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Black Hole Initiative at Harvard University. I am also a collaborator on the DFG project "The role of inference to the best explanation in the discovery of gravitational waves".
My current research concerns the use of models and simulations in the detection of gravitational waves by LIGO and Virgo and the epistemological consequences of this for using gravitational waves to observe the universe.
I was previously a Heinrich Hertz Fellow with the Lichtenberg Group for History and Philosophy of Physics at the University of Bonn.
I completed my PhD in the History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Notre Dame, specializing in the philosophy of physics and astrophysics. Before Notre Dame, I completed an MPhil in Philosophy at the University of Cambridge and a BSc and BA(Hons) at the University of Canterbury.
