Speaking Engagements

I regularly make presentations at meetings like AGU and GEM, and present my reaearch to the Physics and Astronomy Department through plasma seminars.

Works In Progress

I am currently working on techniques to visualize magnetic reconnection structures using spacecraft observations and modeling of magnetospheric mass density.
