Bio/Description

I graduated from California State University, Fullerton with a double major in Physics and Applied Mathematics in 2022 followed by an M.S. in Physics in 2024. My research focused on measuring the stochastic force fluctuations in out of equilibrium systems using optical tweezers and implementing techniques from out of equilibrium statistical mechanics to analyze the stochastic energetics. At Princeton, I hope to continue using physics to understand biological systems with a particular interest in collective dynamics and intracellular mechanics. In my free time I enjoy cooking, reading, and brewing coffee.
