Research Overview

Currently investigating the processes that drive bead-like signatures in Jupiter's aurorae using Juno-MAG magnetometer data, JEDI and JADE energetic particle data, and UVS ultraviolet imaging. I will be collaborating with international partners, and will be presenting work late 2026.

My previous study investigates the field-aligned current structures in Saturn's dusk-side southern aurora. Developing our understanding of the typical FAC structures in this region, response to solar wind compressions, and influence of the PPO systems. Paper currently under review.
