ID-MAGE is designed to discovery and characterize satellites of LMC and SMC mass host galaxies between 4 and 10 Mpc away. Read MoreAdditionally, I am working on project to determine the timescales over which stellar feedback drives turbulence in the atomic gas of dwarf galaxies. This work utilizes new and archival HST data to measure time and spatially resolved star formation histories and and Very Large Array data to determine spatially resolved gas kinematics.
