My research is on astroparticle physics, with a focus on high energy and
ultra high energy cosmic rays. I worked on the measurements of the
chemical composition of charged cosmic rays at the Pierre Auger
Observatory in Malargue, Argentina and currently at the IceCube
Observatory at the South Pole. I joined SDSMT in 2021 to advance those
studies and to help with the development and construction of the
next-generation observatory IceCube-Gen2.
