Hello!

I am a third year graduate student at IfA Mānoa. I am interested in probing the spectroscopic behaviour of eruptive variable young stellar objects (YSOs) in the Infrared with the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF). These results will be used to assess the observing capacity of the upcoming IRTF integral field unit spectrograph SPECTRE.

I am a California Bay Area native and completed my undergraduate studies at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). I have worked on a variety of research projects, ranging from galactic center color-temperature maps to IRTF image quality improvements. Outside of research, I enjoy taking morning swims and fibre arts.
