I have published papers on a few black hole-related topics: how supermassive black holes form, how they grow, and where we might find them if they don't end up in galaxy centers.

My general interests include:

massive black hole seed formation (whether by direct collapse, cluster collapse, Population III seeds, or whatever your favorite method is)

how black holes grow (when? where does the gas come from? how does it get there?)

intermediate mass black holes

black holes wandering in galaxy halos for various reasons

feedback! how does accretion energy couple to the ISM? How does this affect the galaxy?

how many massive black holes lurk quietly in dwarf galaxies?
