I'm Adam Distler, a first-year PhD student in the Harvard Astronomy department. I primarily focus on studying extrasolar planets with Prof. David Charbonneau, but I also enjoy studying dynamics at all scales. I am both a Hertz Fellow and a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow. I did my undergraduate at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, majoring in both Astronomy-Physics and Mathematics, graduating in the Spring of 2024.
I grew up in Linwood Township, and grew to enjoy nature and the outdoors. I spend my free time hiking, fishing, and playing sports such as tennis and golf. Notably, I am the recent winner of the Center for Astrophysics's annual tennis tournament and hope to defend this title in the coming year.
Some of these are still a work-in-progress, but highlight my current and past interests in research. Click a panel to learn more.
