Questions worth
exploring.

My independent research focuses on lattice quantum chromodynamics. I'm also curious about other areas of physics that explore matter, gravity, and the universe.

01

Lattice quantum chromodynamics

My independent research explores how physicists use lattice methods to study quarks, gluons, and the strong interaction.

02

Nuclear and particle physics

I'm interested in the fundamental particles of matter, the forces between them, and how strongly interacting matter behaves.

03

Quantum physics

I’m interested in how quantum mechanics describes matter and light, and the questions it raises about the physical world.

04

Gravity and gravitational waves

I'm drawn to relativity, black holes, and what gravitational waves can tell us about some of the universe's most extreme events.

05

Quantum cosmology

I’m curious about what quantum physics might tell us about the early universe and how it connects to gravity.

02 / About

Curiosity, made quantitative.

I am double majoring in Physics and Mathematics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I enjoy theoretical and computational physics, and I'm currently conducting independent research in lattice quantum chromodynamics.

I'm fascinated by the questions physics asks about matter and the universe. This site is a place to share my research interests and the directions I'm hoping to explore as I continue my undergraduate studies.
