Hello new Mather friends! I’m hyped to join you as a new tutor this year! I was an undergrad at Columbia, where I spent my time designing satellites, telescopes, spacewalking tools, and everything in between. I’m now in my second year of an Astronomy PhD, where I study the Milky Way and work on new instruments. I’m always exploring new hobbies, with staples including tennis, hiking, photography, volleyball, and board games. Happy to share a meal any time :)
