• APS Global Physics Summit - March 2026

Presented our work on Wilson-Loop-Ideal Bands in Tight-Binding Models (abstract) and contributed to two additional oral presentations as co-authors on Machine-Learning Accelerated Calculations of Correlation Functions (abstract) and Two-magnon excitations in altermagnetism probed by inelastic light scattering (abstract).

• 245th meeting of the American Astronomical Society, National Harbor, Maryland — January 2025

Co-authored Cool Stars, Hot Tech: Spectral Typing of M, L, and T Dwarfs with Machine Learning, presented by Tianxing Zhou (abstract).

• 243rd meeting of the American Astronomical Society, New Orleans, Louisiana — January 2024

Presented our work on Innovative Template Creation for Spectral Typing: A Study of Gaia DR3's Low-Resolution Spectra (abstract).

• 2023 NASA L’SPACE Academy Fellow: Advancing in NASA Proposal Writing and Evaluation Experience

I was a part of NASA’s L’SPACE (Lucy Student Pipeline Accelerator and Competency Enabler) Academy. Working with a cross-disciplinary team, I led a concept proposal addressing a challenge in the Exploration Destination Systems (TX07) domain—covering mission operations and in-situ resource utilization. We connected our work to the objectives of the Lucy mission to the Trojan asteroids.

• 2023 Undergraduate Summer Research Award, University of California, San Diego 

Selected for the Undergraduate Summer Research Award (7,500$) by the Dean of the School of Physical Sciences. The award supports my ongoing research, Spectral Typing all of Gaia Data Release 3: A Study of Low-Resolution Spectra.

• 2023 August 16th, Summer Research Conference (SRC), UC San Diego

My work focused on creating spectral templates to facilitate comprehensive studies of stars and stellar populations, using the vast, precise data from the Gaia satellite. The core objective was to augment the precision and reliability of these templates, thereby providing a tool for expansive astronomical studies and enriching our understanding of stellar phenomena.
