About me

I’m a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Astronomy at The Ohio State University. I study star formation and the interstellar medium in nearby galaxies using JWST, ALMA, and other observatories. I work in the “Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS” PHANGS team.

From 2021-2023 I was a postdoc at the University of Western Ontario working on the JWST Early Release Science program PDRs4All: “Radiative Feedback from Massive Stars as Traced by Multiband Imaging and Spectroscopic Mosaics”.

In August 2021 I received my PhD in Astronomy at McMaster University (advisors: Christine Wilson and Laura Parker). I received my BSc in Physics and MSc in Physics at McGill University.
