Get to Know Me

Born in Columbia, SC, I stayed in-state and pursued my undergraduate degree at Furman University in Greenville. I graduated summa cum laude in May 2022, earning a B.S. in Physics and a double major in Applied Mathematics, minoring in Data Analytics. In my time at Furman, I was heavily involved in the Astronomy Club and the Society of Physics Students. More information about my education, extracurriculars, and achivements at Furman can be found on my CV.

Outside of academia and astronomy, I enjoy video games, reading, and bushcraft. Living in Virginia, I appreciate a good hike and love to look at critters. Some other interests of mine are cultivating increasingly elaborate picnic spreads, tending to a garden that is way too big for my tiny apartment patio, and trying to finish a game of solitaire with only 60 moves. I've also recently picked up baking!

Some of the media I'm currently enjoying: Fallout 4, Stardew Valley, Ovens Rocky Mountain Bushcraft, the Southern Reach Trilogy by Jeff VanderMeer, I Love Hue, and the Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson.
