I am a post-baccalaureate researcher using gas kinematics to quantify the effects of star-formation and supermassive black hole growth on the evolution of galaxies. My background experience spans observation and numerical simulation in galaxies, exoplanets, and heliophysics, united by my use of primarily spectroscopic methodologies. I also create interactive multimedia electronic science communication exhibits on my research and the role of spectroscopy in astronomy.
