About me

I’m a third-year Ph.D. candidate advised by Prof. Jian Qin in the Chemical Engineering department at Stanford University. I completed my undergraduate education at UT Austin, where I earned a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and completed the Elements of Computing Certificate. For more information, please see my CV.

My research leverages simulations and theory to explore the molecular-level phenomena governing battery electrolytes. Specifically, I study the physics underlying ion transport, ion aggregation, and charge transfer in collaboration with great researchers in the Bao and Cui groups at Stanford. I am grateful to be supported by the NSF GRFP, Stanford Graduate Fellowship, and Chevron Fellowship in Energy.

Outside of research, I serve as a National Event Supervisor for the middle school space science events in Science Olympiad, where I help develop rules, pedagogical resources, and exams. I also enjoy doing triathlons, reading, and watching sports with my friends.
