I am an experimental physicist. My work naturally spans physics, astronomy, and engineering to some extent. I am passionate about fundamental questions regarding the origin of the universe and our place within it. So, my main interests and work are often driven by philosophy and experimental problem-solving. Besides that, I enjoy exploring various art forms and history, as well as participating in outreach and outdoor activities.
