Education
Worcester Polytechnic Institute, BS in Robotics & Mechanical Engineering, 2021

I am a physics PhD student with a focus in Physics Education Research (PER). I am working with Prof. Ben Pollard to research the physics writing skills that undergraduate physics lab students need to create lab reports that are cohesive and engage with scientific literature. Starting in 2018, I worked for the Physics Department as an undergraduate Peer Learning Assistant and since 2021, I have been a graduate Teaching Assistant. My favorite part about working with students is seeing them expand their understanding by engaging in active learning and laboratory settings.
