ABOUT ME

My fascination with the universe started in first grade when I learned about the solar system. That interest developed into a career path when I attended my first college physics class as a high school early college student.

 

During my undergraduate years at UNC-Chapel Hill, I became active in outreach through Carolina Women in Physics of which I eventually became a co-president in my final year. 

 

I am currently working on my Ph.D.  with Dr. Kathryne Daniel from  the University of Arizona.
