Overview

I spent most of my childhood in the small town of Simsbury, Connecticut. I attended Rutgers in New Jersey for my undergraduate degree in Astrophysics as a member of the Honors College.

 

I love biting my teeth into hard problems, especially ones involving computing, and working to understand their ins and outs by the time I am done. In my time off, I like to sit back and play games (probably a little too much) and often apply the same mindset to them as I do for work.

Education

B.Sc., Astrophysics, Rutgers University, 2021

Research

My research interests broadly involve galaxy formation and evolution and how the universe got to where it is today. I enjoy both trying to understand the physics of the universe and computational steps along the way to get there.
