My primary research interests are accretion disks, accreting white dwarfs, core collapse supernovae, astrophysical fluid dynamics, boundary layers, convection, dynamos, radiative transfer and numerical simulations. I focus a lot of my efforts on understanding accretion onto white dwarfs because these are the best systems to confront accretion theory with observations. I then hope to apply the knowledge gained here to other astrophysical systems.
