I am interested in understanding how galaxies formed in the early Universe
and how they evolved throughout cosmic time.
My research focuses on massive quiescent galaxies at high redshifts. I use observational and theoretical techniques to study their star-formation histories, quenching mechanisms, and chemical abundances. Most recently, I built new alpha-enhanced stellar population models which will be essential in deriving accurate physical properties of high-redshift galaxies.

Our SSP (simple stellar population) models
Age: log(age/yr) = 5.0 - 10.3 (in steps of 0.05)
Wavelength: 100 AA - 30 microns
[Fe/H] = [-2.5, +0.5] (in steps of 0.25)
[α/Fe] = -0.2, +0.0, +0.2, +0.4, +0.6
α-enhancement for both isochrones and stellar spectra
