At Georgia Tech’s Sam Nunn School of International Affairs, I lead a research portfolio dedicated to issues of international coordination, sustainability, and security in outer space. I develop analytic approaches to recognize and predict satellite behavior in the most congested portions of the near-Earth space environment to better inform the development of international norms of behavior for satellite operations. I also teach classes on topics at the intersection of space technology and policy.

My academic work has been supported by the Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation, the National Science Foundation, Schmidt Futures, and Switzerland’s State Secretariat for Education, Research, and Innovation. My professional practice as an advisor for outer space affairs has been recognized with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s (MIT) Prize for Open Data, the Geneva Centre for Security Policy’s Prize for Innovation in Global Security, and a placement on Forbes Magazine’s 30 Under 30 in Science list. 

Prior to my work at Georgia Tech, I studied astrodynamics and technology policy at MIT and astrophysics and Russian language at Princeton University.
