About Me

I am a theoretical astrophysicist and an assistant professor in the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Minnesota and the Minnesota Institute for Astrophysics.

I received my bachelors and masters degrees from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, obtained my PhD at Columbia University, and subsequently held a NASA Hubble (Einstein) Postdoctoral Fellowship and a Theoretical Astrophysics Center Fellowship at UC Berkeley, before arriving in Minnesota to start a tenure-track faculty position.
