Hola! I graduated from Harvard College with a BA in physics in May 2023. I'm now a first-year PhD student at MIT's Nuclear Science and Engineering Department in the Quantum Measurement Group led by Professor Mingda Li. I work on synthesizing and characterizing sustainable quantum materials. I'm interested in lowering microelectronics’ carbon emissions through experimental materials physics research.
I've worked in the Mundy Group at Harvard University synthesizing and characterizing transparent superconductors. And I've also worked at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, Commonwealth Fusion Systems, VEIR, and the Etscorn Observatory.
Aside from my scientific interests, I'm interested in digital science communication, entrepreneurship, advocacy for nonproliferation of nuclear weapons, and energy justice. Please reach out with any opportunities or questions!
