Under construction...

I'm a postdoctoral fellow at the Department of Astronomy & Astrophysics, at the University of Chicago, working with Mike Gladders.
I graduated on 2006 from the University of Michigan, where I worked with Tim McKay, Gus Evrard and others. My thesis focused on compiling a large catalog of galaxy clusters, the "maxBCG" catalog, using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. This catalog is now being utilized extensively, to study a broad range of phenomena, from cosmology, structure formation, clusters properties, galaxies, dust, and more.
I now enjoy analyzing the actual images, such as this, or this, and even go to the telescope occasionally.
