Personal profile

Research interests

My primary research interest is understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies, with a particular focus on the diverse galaxy populations observed across cosmic time and their co-evolution with central active galactic nuclei (AGN). I use multi-wavelength data to disentangle the underlying emission mechanisms in galaxies and to robustly characterise their physical properties, including stellar masses, star-formation histories, and the AGN contribution to the total energy budget. I specialise in the new-generation spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting code Prospector, which I am using to self-consistently model photometric and spectroscopic data. At Herts, my work centres on understanding the nature of the faint radio source population in the LoFAR Two Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) deep fields, including the development of a joint spectro-photometric galaxy classification framework that is directly relevant to achieving the science goals of the WEAVE-LOFAR survey. I also have experience with radio interferometry, which complements my broader multi-wavelength approach.
