I am an astronomer, working as a Chandra Fellow at Carnegie Observatories in lovely Pasadena, California.

My research focuses on the nature and properties of groups and clusters of galaxies, and the evolution of galaxies within and outside these environments. I am studying these topics mainly using data from X-ray and optical telescopes, occasionally coupled with numerical modelling and results of cosmological simulations ...when I'm not busy drinking coffee.
