Hi there ๐Ÿ‘‹

I'm a PhD candidate in astrophysics at the University of Chicago. My research works toward understanding how galaxies form and evolve with a specific focus on the chemical and physical mechanisms that regulate star formation in the smallest galaxies.

See below for some selected GitHub repos which I own/maintain or to which I have contributed.

๐Ÿ”ญ I am invested in open science, so I try to make my code/data/models public:

๐Ÿ”ญ I also work on scientific software projects that I hope will be useful to the community:

โœจ and sometimes I publish smaller packages for fun (or as relatively simple utilities):

๐Ÿ“š Additionally, I'm very active in instruction and pedagogy, and share some materials on GitHub:
