I am a postdoctoral research associate in the Chemical Physics and Analysis research group at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. I study theoretical and computational chemistry involving ultrafast science and X-ray spectroscopy.

I received my PhD in theoretical and computational chemistry from Johns Hopkins University. At Hopkins, I used high-accuracy quantum chemical calculations and machine learning to perform modeling and simulation of photochemical processes. I studied laser cooling, molecular conical intersections, and nonadiabatic chemical dynamics.

I am a member of the executive board of the Maryland Local Section of the American Chemical Society, and I am responsible for managing and updating the Local Section website. I also served as a Safety Captain on the Johns Hopkins University Chemistry Student Safety Committee.

I graduated as valedictorian from Union College in Schenectady, NY with a double major in physics and chemistry. At Union, I studied metal-infused aerogels in the Union College Aerogel Lab, where I completed my Honors senior thesis. Check out the research tab to see the other research projects I've worked on.
