About
I utilize multi-wavelength datasets from ground- and space-based observatories to study various aspects of protostellar formation and evolution. Her studies include how magnetic fields influence the formation of protostars and disks, the impacts of outflows on natal molecular clouds, multiplicity of young stars, the dynamics of cluster formation and dispersal, and the individual properties of protostars in the Orion Molecular Clouds using both photometry and near- and mid-IR spectroscopy.
