Interests
My research focuses on using gravitational waves as a probe of the dark sector of the universe. I work on both theoretical and data analysis aspects of extracting fundamental physics information from next-generation gravitational wave data including LISA, Einstein Telescope, and Cosmic Explorer.I am particularly interested in formation and detection scenarios for dark matter particles and fundamental fields surrounding extreme mass ratio inspirals - pairs of black holes where one is much larger than the other - and primordial black holes, tiny black holes that could have formed in the very early universe.
