Research interests
My research focuses on developing tools to search for new subatomic particles. Many different problems in the standard model of particle physics could be resolved by the existence of additional particles, including the nature of dark matter, the inexplicably light mass of the higgs boson, the large hierarchy in coupling strength between the higgs boson and different fermion flavors, and several unexplained experimental anomalies. I work on both theoretical and machine learning based tools which could help discover new particles to solve these problems.
