I’m a PhD student studying theoretical and computational astroparticle physics working with Prof. Lina Necib. I work on exploring the nature of dark matter (DM) through galactic dynamics. I am interested in realizing different DM models in simulations and identifying observables that can help us constrain different DM models. I study DM properties ranging from its phase space distribution in the solar neighborhood, to its impact on the evolution of Dwarf galaxies, with the goal of better informing direct/indirect detection experiments.
