About me:
I am Ph.D. candidate at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and a graduate fellow at the Illinois Center for Advanced Studies of the Universe (ICASU). I study nuclear matter at high temperatures and densities, at and beyond the boundary of our theoretical knowledge of what degrees of freedom and interactions describe strongly interacting matter. Using novel statistical and machine learning methods, I look for ways to learn about undiscovered fundamental properties of nuclear matter from heavy-ion collisions at various energies and astronomical observations of neutron stars.
