About
In my research, I study how galaxies evolve in different environments. Most of my time is spent organizing and coordinating the IfA’s many outreach programs – school visits, stargazing events, public talks, our annual Open House, press releases, and social media.
I am also the head of the UH National Gemini Office, and teach undergraduate astronomy classes.
