Hello! I am a physicist specializing in the nuclear physics, particle physics, and applied machine learning fields. I have over 8+ years of experience working in scientific research employed by two national laboratories and serving as an active-duty officer within the military. After graduating with a physics degree from UC Berkeley and serving as the youngest officer & physicist within my branch of service, I've interacted with all learning styles in a variety of different domains. I've learned that an open line of communication, and the willingness to adapt while also having fun are crucial to a developing environment.
