I am an undergraduate researcher focused on improving data analysis methods within astrophysics and cosmology studies. My work focuses on machine learning applications, teaching tool development, and whatever else piques my curiosity.

Outside of professional work, I dedicate most of my energy towards skateboarding, hiking, and immersing myself in the arts.

Projects

Here are some of the projects I've worked on during my academic career.

CMBverse
June 2024 – July 2025 · Austin, Texas

Simulated Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) power spectra utilizing the Cosmic Linear Anisotropy Solving System (CLASS) and graphically analyzed the impact of Lambda Cold Dark Matter (ΛCDM) model parameters. Designed and published a website to display interactive graphs, improving accessibility for academic audiences within the Physics and Astronomy departments at the University of Texas at Austin and beyond.

GW Sonification Pipeline
Oct 2025 – Dec 2025 · Austin, Texas

Constructed a command-line tool to download, visualize, and sonify gravitational wave events from GWOSC (Gravitational Wave Open Science Center). Developed an open-source pipeline to extract black hole merger parameter distributions from LIGO, construct waveforms, and map waveforms into an audio format. Constructed a Jupyter Notebook version for step-by-step execution to increase learnability. Formed a detailed guide explaining pipeline usage and the theoretical physics of gravitational waves and their observation.
