Knoxville Metropolitan Area
Passionate about solving complex problems through quantitative models. Focused on solving challenges that matter.
• Organized and promoted monthly educational and community-building programs for 200+ residents. • Mediated interpersonal roommate conflicts and facilitated resolution through active listening and policy enforcement. • Conducted room inspections, managed incident reports, and coordinated maintenance to ensure resident safety and compliance.
• Investigated the nuclear structure of 33Mg within the "island of inversion" through TRIUMF experimental data analysis. • Operated and calibrated photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) and scintillation detectors to support precision measurements. • Contributed to NSF/DOE-supported research (Grant DE-SC00169088) on exotic nuclei and shell evolution.
Assisted students locked out of their rooms, answered relevant residential life questions, helped residents find their way through general residential life.
• Analyzed hybrid ultra-high-energy cosmic ray (UHECR) events from the TALE infill array and IceCube Surface Array Extension (SAE) under Dr. John Matthews in the P&A REU program. • Cross-calibrated IceCube Gen2 surface detectors with TALE infill detectors to correct timing offsets and improve muon calibration. • Investigated cosmic ray interactions below the "knee" to enhance understanding of particle origins and shower development.
• Set new constraints on the axion-photon coupling constant using TEXONO and XENONnT dark matter search data. • Applied inelastic Inverse Primakoff scattering processes to study rare-event signals in neutrino and axion physics. • Collaborated with the international PIRE GEMADARC project on advanced dark matter and rare event searches.
