I am a member of SDSS-V, an all-sky, multi-epoch spectroscopic survey that will obtain optical and infrared spectra for over 6 million objects by 2025. Specifically, I am part of the Black Hole Mapper (BHM) team, which will observe more than 400,000 sources, primarily active galactic nuclei and black hole systems. Many of these targets will be monitored repeatedly to enable reverberation mapping, black hole mass measurements, and studies of accretion variability. BHM also plays a key role in characterizing the X-ray sky mapped by eROSITA, advancing our understanding of black hole growth and evolution across cosmic time.

The 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST) is a multi-fiber spectrograph installed on the VISTA telescope at Paranal Observatory. Designed for large-scale spectroscopic surveys, 4MOST can observe thousands of objects simultaneously across a wide field of view. I am a member of the 4MOST/ChANGES collaboration, which has been awarded 1.8 million fiber-hours to perform spectroscopic follow-up of AGN and transients discovered by the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). This includes rare and extreme events associated with supermassive black holes, such as tidal disruption events and changing-look AGN. Our goal is to build a time-domain spectroscopic census of AGN activity, providing critical insights into black hole growth, accretion physics, and the co-evolution of SMBHs and their host galaxies.
