Q: What are your physics/science interests?

I find computational physics extremely interesting. Its broadness allows for many applications and use-cases. I'm particularly interested in the Biomedical applications, where we can simulate chemical interactions within the body without having to put anyone in harm's way.

Q: What are your other interests?

I really enjoy cooking, hiking, and economics! This past year, I've taken a liking to playing tennis.

Q: What would you like to do after college?

I plan to attend graduate school after college.

Q: Tell us one strange but interesting fact about yourself.

I know the lyrics to all the songs in Taylor Swift's Red album.

Q: What first sparked your interest in Physics?

I was watching the first Ironman movie, and took an interest in his nuclear fusion reactor. Many articles, and a few books later, I found myself fully committed to being a Physicist.

Q: If you could have any pet what would it be?

Honey Bees! I have fond memories of helping my neighbor with their honey bees.

Q: If you had a free month and unlimited funds, how would you spend your time?

I'd probably just spend it doing philanthropy work in Nigeria, with the purpose of long term benefits. Whatever that means when one only has a month.

Q: If you could get a grant to study anything what would it be?

I'd study deep space exploration.
