I have moved to Utrecht University as an Assistant Professor of Physics (Nov. 2020)!
Starting November 2020, I will be an assistant professor at the Department of Physics at Utrecht University.
From 2018-2020, I was a Simons Junior Fellow at Columbia University, working with Professor Kyle Bishop.
I received my Ph.D. in physics at the University of Pennsylvania (2018) where I was an American Association of University Women Fellow, working under the supervision of Professors Randall D. Kamien and Kathleen J. Stebe. My research focuses generally on phenomena observed in soft materials. Check out my Research page to find out more!
Before pursuing my doctorate, I studied at New York University, where I earned my BA in physics and philosophy (2012). There, I was a junior research scientist, and I examined the sedimentation behavior of fibers with Professor David J. Pine.
