I conceived and wrote the entirety of the $0.5M ADAP proposal, on which I was the Science PI. On the two MINERVA grants, totaling $1.6M, I was the primary author and operate as the Principal Investigator, though my appointment did not allow me to be the PI in fact. My appointment at LCOGT did not allow me to be a Co-I on the three NRES grants totaling $2.8M, though I did the majority of the work behind the scenes, wrote ∼ 30% of the text, and contributed at a similar level to the ideas and its presentation. 2019-2022 Science-PI of successful NASA ROSES grant 18-ADAP18-006 { $499,940 \A homogeneous, global analysis of all Kepler and K2 planets" (18-ADAP18-0062) PI John A.
