I am a PhD student at the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics at the Australian National University.

My primary research goals are directed toward exploring and modelling the concept of habitability. I am currently investigating the effect that a diverse range of astronomical and planetary parameters have on an exoplanets' ability to sustain liquid water.

In conjunction with the rapidly increasing information from exoplanet databases expected within the next 2 years, my future research plans are to help determine optimal targets for near-future ground- and space-based observations of planetary atmospheres and the potential detection of life in space.
