howdy!

index I’m Franklin, a third-year Astronomy Ph.D. student at Texas A&M. I’m currently working with Professor Jonelle Walsh on making stellar dynamical mass measurements of supermassive black holes. In broad strokes, I’m interested in black hole-galaxy co-evolution: by weighing black holes, we can see how they grow with their galactic hosts over cosmic time.

I have several pages on this website: you can read more about my research, take a look at my C.V, see the outreach projects I’m involved in, or just get to know me.
