Speaking

I am interested in speaking to diverse audiences of all levels about cosmology and astrophysics, outreach and public engagement in the sciences, and career paths in physics and astronomy. I seek to convey information about these complex topics in an accessible and engaging way. This list includes my research presentations as well as public outreach events, panel events, lab tours, and radio interviews, as of April 2021. 

For a up to date list of presentations, please see my CV (link), updated as of 4/2023.
