I am a faculty member at the department of astronomy in the University of Florida.  I serve as an associate scientist, working with the engineering group to build state of the art instruments for the largest and most advanced telescopes in the world.

My research work focusses on active galactic nuclei (AGN), and I lead an international group of astronomers (drawn from the US, Spain, Mexico and the UK) with the plan to optimally exploit guaranteed observing time provided to me for my instrument work.  Click here for my publications, provided by ADS.
