Background
My research interests lie at the intersection of imaging, x-ray physics, and computational sensing. My recent work has focused on developing an x-ray imaging technique to improve material specificity in existing x-ray imaging systems. This technique utilizes a low-cost angular filtration grid to convert phase shifts into measurable intensity differences that can be used to determine the real part of the refractive index.
In my spare time, I enjoy going hiking and camping, and recently started indoor bouldering.
