Research Interests: As an observational astronomer working primarily across the UV-to-IR wavelengths in the field of galaxy evolution, my main research interests are young, star-forming galaxies and their potential contribution to the reionization of the early Universe. To investigate this, I have studied the star formation and interstellar medium (ISM) properties of Lyman-alpha emitters, Lyman-continuum leakers, extreme emission-line galaxies such as Green Pea galaxies, and strongly lensed high-redshift galaxies across cosmic time. My analyses have focused on a range of galaxy properties, including morphology, ISM properties and ionization state, ionizing production efficiency, Lyman-alpha escape fraction, and Lyman-continuum escape fraction.
