My astronomy research program advances our knowledge of how galaxies assemble over cosmic time.
My team capitalizes on the high resolution, extreme sensitivity, and broad wavelength coverage of ground and space-based telescopes. This comprehensive approach enables us to study galaxies from the local neighborhood to the edge of the observable Universe. We use observatories including the Hubble Space Telescope and Keck to study strong gravitational lenses and understand how galaxies form and evolve.
