A Little About Me

I am a fourth year graduate student in astrophysics at The University of Minnesota. I am working under the direction of Dr. Juergen Ott of Caltech and Dr. Evan Skillman as a member of the VLA-ANGST team which is a part of the larger ANGST project. We are using the VLA to study the HI gas in 36 dwarf galaxies. Each galaxy was observed in three different array configurations (B, C, and D) to give us an angular resolution of ~6". We are currently in the data reduction process, but will soon look into the details of star formation histories and stellar feedback into the ISM for each galaxy.
