Exploring Alien Planets: Theory and Observation of Exoplanet Systems

December 05, 2022

Talk, UND Physics Seminar Series, Grand Forks, North Dakota

Invited presentation for undergraduate and general audiences about my dissertation research topic: pebble accretion in exoplanet systems. Tailored and delivered for undergraduates, the talk explores the “dialectic” between observations of the solar system and exoplanet discoveries and theories of planet formation.

NASA ExoExplorers: Modeling the Architecture and Composition of Exoplanetary Systems from Pebble Accretion

January 20, 2022

Talk, NASA ExoExplorers Program Cohort 2023, Zoom (from Grand Forks, North Dakota)

Selected as one of a dozen early career scientists to present my research, complete professional development and DEIA workshops, and grow my network, this presentation captures the early stages of my dissertation research on pebble accretion - a compelling new piece to the planet formation puzzle.
