Academics

MSU Graduate in Astrophysics

I graduated from Michigan State University in 2023 with a degree in Astrophysics and a minor degree in Computational Math, Science, and Engineering (CMSE). I worked as an Undergraduate Research Assistant for all four years under two professors where I helped with Fusion Research and Computational Modeling of the evolution of the Solar System.

USC Astronautical Engineering Masters (in progress)

I am currently a student at USC in the Astronautical Engineering Master’s program. This program encompasses the engineering and physics behind satellite design, the space environment, and much more. These subjects are a great mix of everything I am interested in.

Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory

Every year the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) hosts what they call an “intensive course” for Introduction to Fusion Energy and Plasma Physics. This is a two-week course that is filled with presentations and invited speakers designed to give students an understanding of the field and the physics that governs it. I participated in 2024 and received a Certificate of Completion seen on the left. The invited speakers gave a great insight into current fusion technology that stuck with me. The details on the program can be found here: https://suli.pppl.gov/2024/course/
