From lasers to atmospheric sulfur to environmental policy, I dig as deep into concepts as I possibly can, always striving to unearth the very core of the idea I&#8217;m exploring. I am especially excited to learn about things that seem simple, but are deeply complex. I also love to study how science and math can aid the betterment of society by using concepts like optimization, piezoelectricity,<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>How I see my future:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>I wish to become an experimental physicist working on particle physics, especially Muons and the top quark.
