Assistant Research Professor
Steward Observatory
University of Arizona

I am a research faculty member at the University of Arizona, studying galaxy evolution with a focus on galaxy clusters, AGN, and star formation.  For my research, I utilize a multi-wavelength approach, from X-ray to radio, with a focus on mid- to far-infrared.  I did my Ph.D (2008-2014) at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst with Dr. Alexandra Pope on star formation in galaxy clusters up to z~2 using deep Herschel imaging.  
In 2014, I joined the groups working on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) at the University of Arizona as a postdoctoral researcher.  I am a member of the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) instrument team and of the MIRI and Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) Guaranteed Time Observation (GTO) teams.  I split my time between detector testing and characterization for MIRI, preparation for Cycle 1 GTO science observations with JWST, and my current research projects.

I am also part of the Leadership Council for the Infrared Science and Technology Integration Group (IRSTIG),  which is dedicated to collecting feedback from and enhancing the voices of infrared astronomers as we advocate for the future of infrared astronomy.

RESEARCH INTERESTS

My research interests lie broadly in the field of galaxy evolution, with an emphasis on galaxies that are undergoing transformational processes toward shutting down their star formation.
