Research Interests
My research focuses on understanding the formation, evolution, and atmospheres of brown dwarfs and brown dwarf systems, and especially how they serve a a link between giant planets and low mass stars at both the system and population levels. To this end, I combine multiple datasets including near and mid-infrared spectroscopy, astrometry, and near-infrared imaging, and data-driven techniques to infer the physical and atmospheric properties of these objects.
