I am a fourth-year undergraduate student at UC Berkeley majoring in physics and astrophysics. I currently do research at the Space Science Laboratory (SSL) working on the impacts of alpha particle distributions on wave dynamics in the solar wind. Previously, I have worked at SSL on lunar regolith sputtering simulations, at UC Santa Cruz on the impact of mixtures of volatiles on exoplanetary radii, and at the University of Osaka on multi-frequency millimeter spectral energy distribution analysis of active galactic nuclei. Although I have been involved in many fields, I’m currently interested in pursuing research in particle cosmology. Outside of work and school, I love staying healthy and fit by meal prepping, lifting weights, and doing yoga and pilates.
