I have a deep interest in the way that things work and currently study undergraduate physics at the University of Colorado Denver. I am a first-generation college student and military veteran. Interdisciplinary by nature, I am committed to developing creative and innovative research projects that impact society in positive ways. I enjoy problem-solving and care deeply about the applications of my work.

I am currently concentrated on the use of applied physics in energy solutions and climate resilient innovation. A lifelong learner, I would like to continue this important work with a PhD. After graduation, I would like to continue to learn, contribute to new knowledge, and share mine with others through teaching.

Creativity in science extends into my craft where I write my own instrumental music on the piano. Aside from playing instruments, I also enjoy writing fiction, charcoal drawing, and appreciating a good story through literature, cinema, or theatre.
