About Me

I am an astronomer with a background in physics and mathematics. I love to combine physical intuition with mathematical theories to better understand our universe. Currently, I am a Carnegie Fellow at the Carnegie Observatories in Pasadena, CA. I grew up along the beautiful coast of Maine and love to spend my free time outdoors.

Research Interests

Very broadly, my roots are in radio astronomy. I have been especially interested in using radio emission as a dust-unbiased tracer of star formation---both locally and across cosmic time. Locally, I use radio emission to constrain the transport of cosmic rays to better understand their influence in the growth and evolution of galaxies. Far away, I make statistical models of faint populations of radio sources to constrain the cosmological evolution of galaxies. Recently, I've combined these models with optical/NIR spectra to calibrate SFR diagnostics across various environments.
