Overview

My work primarily relies on a multiwavelength crossmatch between X-rays from the SRG/eROSITA mission and optical data from the Zwicky Transient Facility and Gaia, though I also use data from other X-ray, optical, and radio telescopes. I am broadly interested in applying statistical techniques to extract scientific results out of large astronomical datasets, and have shown that a simple tool, the “X-ray Main Sequence”, can efficiently reveal the true demographics of accreting white dwarfs in the solar neighborhood.
