My Research
I am a first-year graduate student at the Trottier Space Institute, McGill University. I am interested in exoplanetary atmospheres: more specifically comparative climatology. My current project is Hierarchical Bayesian modelling for population-level studies, combining rigorous statistics and computation to address key science questions for current and future exoplanet missions.
HERMES & the Ariel Space Mission
ESA's Ariel will characterise the atmospheres of ~1000 exoplanets, measuring molecular abundances (H₂O, Na, CH₄, and more) across a diverse planetary sample. I develop HERMES (HIErarchical Modelling for Exoplanet Science) — an open-source hierarchical Bayesian framework that constrains population-level trends across planetary mass, metallicity, and stellar parameters. HERMES is designed to integrate with other exoplanet missions and future mission data.
