About me:
I am a fifth-year grad student at Duke University and plan to graduate in 2024. Before coming to Duke, I obtained my bachelor’s degrees in physics and astronomy at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. During my undergrad, I really enjoyed cosmology and subatomic physics and did some numerical work on galaxies and supermassive black holes. Since I like to use both analytical and numerical methods and find the concept of effective field theory (EFT) fascinating, I joined the nuclear theory group and studied with Prof. Roxanne Springer after I came to Duke. My current research involves EFT and three- and four-body systems, and I have also been exploring lattice and quantum simulations on few-body systems. I am currently looking for a postdoc position in related fields.
