Mae fy ymchwil yn canolbwyntio ar gamau cynharaf ffurfio sêr galactig, o sêr màs isel i sêr enfawr.

Rwy'n ceisio yn benodol nodweddu rôl dynameg nwy trwchus ar benderfynu masau craidd sy'n ffurfio sêr. I wneud hyn, rwy'n defnyddio arsylwadau o'r radd flaenaf sy'n rhychwantu ystod o donfeddi, o is-goch i filimetr.

Cyrhaeddais Brifysgol Caerdydd ym mis Ebrill 2013 fel Darlithydd.

Cyn hynny, rhwng Ionawr 2010 a Mawrth 2013, roeddwn yn Gymrawd Marie Curie COFUND yn CEA Saclay, Ffrainc.

Rhwng Rhagfyr 2005 a Rhagfyr 2009, roeddwn yn PDRA ym Mhrifysgol Manceinion, gan ddechrau yn syth ar ôl cael fy ngradd PhD o Universite Marie Curie ym Mharis.
