I am a new faculty hire in astrophysics at the University of California, Merced. My primary research interests are in galaxy evolution, clustered star formation, and chemo-dynamics in the Local Universe. I use high resolution galaxy simulations, survey data, and Big Data tools and techniques to conduct my research. I am also a devoted teacher and student advocate, and I am strongly committed to supporting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion efforts in astrophysics.
Welcome to my website!
Welcome!
