Popular Science Writing
I write a bimonthly science column for the speculative fiction web magazine Strange Horizons.I wrote an article on the search for extrasolar planets which was published in the November 2001 issue of Imagine, the magazine of the Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth.
Graduate Class Work
For Imke de Pater's Ay249 Planetary Astronomy class, I wrote this literature review on the anomalously low internal heat source of Uranus.
