Hello! I am currently a Support Astronomer at Lick Observatory .
I was previously the Lab/Observatory Manager at NMSU . I supported the Astronomy department with the undergraduate labs, and supported operations, maintenance, and troubleshooting at the campus observatory and Tortugas Mountain Observatory. I was also responsible for support of the IT infrastructure in the Astronomy department.
I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Center for Astrophysics and Space Sciences (CASS) at the University of California, San Diego. I worked with Adam Burgasser to characterise and model the low-mass population in Omega Centauri, a massive globular cluster which shows signs of multiple populations. I was previously a postdoc at Steward Observatory , at the University of Arizona with Daniel Apai
