She’s Not Like the Other Galaxies: The Nearly-Impossible Qualities of CEERS2-588 Galaxy-modelers beware! Today’s bite will guide you through an analysis of CEERS2-588, a quirky, UV-luminous, early galaxy discovered by JWST that's causing issues in our theoretical models!

My first bite is live! Go read it! (or don’t, I’m not your PI.)

- I've also recently started writing for Astrobites and am planning on becoming more highly active in science communication.

If you ever have interest in what I'm working on, please feel free to reach out! I'm always down to talk science :)

- I started out in ugrad studying the intersections between particle physics, quantum info and machine learning.

-These days I do a lot more astrophysics! I look at connections between multiple gravitational wave detection methods, and in connecting them also to other physics, like dark matter!

Decided to finally make this account to get more involved in scicomm! Here's a little bit about my research history:

-My interests are broad, spanning particle physics, cosmology and gravitational waves.

-I focus on theoretical research connecting different subfields.
