I am an NSF Astronomy and Astrophysics Postdoctoral Fellow at the Yale Center for Astronomy and Astrophysics. I study quasars and their role in the formation and evolution of galaxies. To do this I explore AGN demographics by data-mining large multi-wavelength sky surveys and conducting follow up observations.
My thesis work at Columbia University concerned dust-reddened quasars selected in the radio and near-infrared. As a postdoctoral fellow at the California Institute of Technology, I was a member of the Palomar Quest (PQ) synoptic sky survey team, and studied quasars in the early universe.
