I was invited to give a talk at the Fernbank Science Center's At-Home Planetarium Shows series, detailing some background information on exoplanet discovery and characterization, as well as some information on my work and the work of my colleagues at the KU ExoLab. The talk was broadcast on Facebook and the recording can be viewed here.

Exploring Exoplanets

I gave a short talk about my first-year project research at KU's Physics and Astronomy LOcally Organized Assembly (PALOOZA), a showcase of KU's current graduate student research. I detail some background on exoplanet characterization and the nuances of Hubble Space Telescope transmission spectroscopy, and what I'm doing to model those systematic effects to get clean transmission spectra back out.

Fun With Transmission Spectroscopy

This is the most updated version of a talk I've given a few times about my JWST observation simulation work, pending completion of the associated paper. Preliminary results were presented at the Chesapeake Bay Exoplanet meeting in September 2018, the American Geophysical Union meeting in December 2018, the American Astronomical Society meeting in January 2019, and as colloquia at the UMD Observatory in January 2019 and Goddard's Sciences and Exploration Directorate Director's Seminar in February 2019.
