Research Interest

 

I am graduate student in Colin Hill’s group, working on observational cosmology. I study the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies, specifically the kinematic and thermal Sunyaev-Zel’dovich Effects, which probe the ionized gas in distant galaxies. My other research interests are large scale structure, galaxy formation from a cosmologist perspective, and data science applications in cosmology and astrophysics.

I am a member of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope and the Simons Observatory.

I lived in Cuba for 3 months during my undergrad!
