University of Chicago '18: Physics Major with Specialization in Astrophysics and Statistics Minor Statistics minor included: Statistical Models/Methods, Applied Regression Analysis, Analysis of Categorical Data, Statistical Theory/Methods, Linear Models/Experimental Design (all of these courses required R) Physics major included: Quantum Mechanics, Modern Physics, Experimental Physics, Intermediate Mechanics/Electricity and Magnetism, Optics, Waves, Heat, Statistical/Thermal Physics, Spacetime and Black Holes (General Relativity), Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos Astrophysics Specialization included: Physics of Stars and Stellar Systems, Physics of Galaxies and the Universe, Modern Topics in Astrophysics (Gravitational Lensing and Exoplanets), and Introduction to Cosmology During the summer of 2016 I conducted research on gravitational lensing of black holes under the guidance of professor Henric Krawczynski at WashU at St. Louis and wrote a paper featured in UChicago's undergraduate research magazine. In the summer of 2017 I participated in research regarding ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (HERON project) with professor R. Michael Rich at UCLA alongside two foreign exchange students from Nanjing University. I am passionate about STEM and spent 40+ hours volunteering with an After-School Science Program at an elementary/middle school (in Chicago) where we held small physics/biology/chemistry/engineering experiments with kids from ages 5-14. I always enjoy helping people solve problems that have been giving them trouble before. I am seeking a position where I can utilize the analytical skills I developed while pursuing my physics degree for a company with innovative and sustainable technology.
