About


I am a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, University of California, Los Angeles. Prior to this I completed my Ph.D. at the Mullard Space Science Laboratory, UCL.

My field of expertise is "space weather"; the plasma conditions in near-Earth space which are modulated by the solar wind. My research focuses on the dynamics of the Van Allen radiation belts, and how varying radiation levels effects satellite equipment.
