I work with Dr. Naveen Reddy as part of the MOSFIRE Deep Evolution Field (MOSDEF) survey, studying star formation and dust properties of galaxies at z ~ 2, when the universe was only ~ 3 Gyr old. This redshift range contains the peak of the star formation rate density evolution and marks an important era in the history of the universe. Download my CV.
