I am a professional astrophysicist/cosmologist working in the field of galaxy formation and evolution. I've worked at the Centre de Recherche Astrophysique de Lyon in Lyon, France; in JILA at the University of Colorado at Boulder and at the Royal Observatory, Edinburgh. My work is theoretical in nature and involves using N-body and other simulation techniques to study the formation of galaxies and large-scale structure in the Universe.
