About me:

Besides my family, I am interested in understanding planetary phenomena.  My current research is focused on understanding surface-atmosphere interactions on Titan, tidal interactions of synchronous satellites, and extrasolar giant planets.  I am an assistant professor in the Department of Earth & Space Sciences and the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at UCLA.
