Research Interests: My research interests center on galaxy formation and evolution, especially the role of luminous and ultra-luminous infrared galaxies in the growth of stars and black holes, and the dependence of galaxy properties on environment. My broader expertise is in astronomical data archives, science platforms, and data access systems that enable researchers to discover, visualize, and analyze large astrophysical data sets.
