Welcome! 

​

I am an incoming assistant professor at MIT with a dual appointment in the departments of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Nuclear Science and Engineering. My research portfolio includes advanced radiator designs, air-breathing nuclear propulsion, and long-standoff detection of radiation signatures. Please reach out if you are interested in joining my group or otherwise collaborating on research!

​

Visit the MIT Aerospace Nuclear page for more information on current and upcoming research projects from my colleagues in both departments: https://spacenuclear.mit.edu/

 

My past research includes contributions to antineutrino detection media,  3D radiation mapping systems, tokamak divertor design, and zero-knowledge warhead verification systems. My work with private industry includes contributions to OpenAI GPT-4, OpenAI o1,  fuel rod quality control systems and innovative approaches to computed tomography. As of May 2026, I have ongoing projects with Google DeepMind and Advanced Tomography Systems.
