I am an observational astronomer interested in understanding how the first galaxies and black holes formed and evolved across cosmic time, their role in cosmic reionization, and the mining of big datasets.

I am a staff astronomer at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg, leading the supermassive black holes and galaxies in the epoch of reionization group. We have a number of projects to study the early universe involving observations from X-rays to radio wavelengths. We are also actively preparing to efficiently exploit the unprecedented datasets that will be provided by facilities such as  JWST, LSST, and Euclid.
