I am an undergraduate student at UC Berkeley majoring in Astrophysics and Planetary Science. As a member of the university’s Radio Astronomy Lab, I am very interested in how planets look in radio frequencies, which tells us about the health and behavior of a planet’s magnetosphere and atmosphere. My current work involves developing SVD-based models to streamline analysis on planetary radio emissions, primarily from Jupiter. I aspire to use these planetary radio emissions as an additional avenue for discovering exoplanets. In addition to my work in the Radio Astronomy Lab, I am a member of the University of California Marching Band where I play trumpet. When I am not conducting research or spreading school spirit with Cal Band, I also enjoy climbing, cycling, backpacking, and Christopher Nolan movies.
