Welcome to my personal homepage! My research interests are in infrared astronomy, interstellar dust, interstellar molecules, the Galactic Center, and star formation.

PhD Program in Astronomy at the Ohio State University!

We offer a unique PhD program with a very strong emphasis on research . Our PhD graduates have typically authored or co-authored 7-12 refereed journal articles by the time they complete the program, in addition to numerous conference papers and abstracts. Our 1st- and 2nd-year students are already active researchers, publishing papers, attending conferences, giving talks, going on observing runs at the Large Binocular Telescope and MDM Observatory , and working in the instrument lab.
