gcp8y [at] virginia [dot] edu (PGP Key) I am a 5th year graduate student in the Department of Astronomy at The University of Virginia. My primary research interest is in the area of galaxy evolution. I am studying mergers of gas-rich massive galaxies using a combination of multi-wavelength observations and numerical simulations. I am also interested in the interplay between active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their host galaxies, as well as the broadband emission of AGN. In addition to my research activities, I am actively involved in public outreach, through UVa's observatory public nights, the local astronomy club, and schools. In my spare time, I enjoy rock/ice climbing, hiking, and cycling, which I document in blog posts, photographs, and videos. |
