About

I am a PhD student at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid, working with high-level JWST and HST data to understand the formation and evolution of HII regions and star clusters in PHANGS galaxies.

My research bridges detailed observations from PHANGS with physical models to reveal how stars and clusters form and evolve within galactic environments.

Research

My work focuses on connecting stellar feedback, gas dynamics, and cluster evolution in nearby galaxies using multi‑wavelength data from PHANGS‑HST and PHANGS‑JWST.

Observations

JWST and HST imaging and narrow‑band mapping to study ionized gas and star cluster populations.

Modeling

Connecting observed line emission and photometry to physical conditions and evolutionary stages.

Data & Tools

Python, Astropy, photutils, and JWST pipeline tools; reproducible notebooks and scripts.
