Is he really aggro post flop? Depending on stats other than VPIP/PFR, I can make a case for folding or 3betting. Usual line is 3bet. He could be doing this with flush draw, KQ, AJ, set, or 2 pair. Against unknown, I think we are ahead here often enough.

i cant see anything a 29/18 can have that beats you except 22, im sure he'd raise kk/jj, prolly kq and KJ too. im not a huge fan of getting it in with tptk like this... but i htink his range is weighted more towards draws, weak made hands and air

i dunno if i prefer shoving over his 3bet or calling and getting it get it in on a blank turn (either c/rai or donk)

Villain is fairly aggressive pre-flop (admittedly over a small sample size). Without any further reads on her I suspect she would have raised on the button with hands that are currently beating you:

AA, KK, JJ, KJ, 22.

I would not rule out 22 or KJ just yet however.

So... I think I'm putting villian on a draw of some kind, or possibly a weaker K or a Jx type of hand. Since you have not commented on your own image I'm assuming you're TAG and you CBet frequently. This min-raise feels like she's caught the flop in a weak way and is playing back at your CBet. Perhaps because of your strong raise from the blinds she thinks you raised with an Ace and missed the flop.

I think we're at the point now when we need to decide whether or not we're going to commit a large portion of our stack to this hand.

Even though my current read is that we are ahead I don't feel like that our edge is big enough to overcome playing the rest of this hand out of position.

With a better sample size on our opponent I would put in a strong re-raise against her if she was aggro post flop. (You didn't post her post-flop-aggression stat - this would've helped a bit more in forming a read)

All we have is top pair and pressure from someone who's unknown so I think I'm ditching the hand and looking for a better place to get my chips in. The ratio of our stack size to the pot size also makes this decision difficult. If all I had was a pot-sized bet left in my stack I'd probably just shove.

I shoved flop and lost to set of dueces. Yay!

guys - stop posting results! you're killing discussion here. the rule of thumb is that you should never post results unless someone asks.
