Work History

Visiting Summer Research Intern

PRISM/PCCM REU, Princeton University
Princeton, NJ
06.2019 - 08.2019
  • Collaborated with team of engineers to conduct Molecular Dynamics (MD) research.
  • Explored physical characteristics of single atomic layer sheets of material via simulations.
  • Utilized LAMMPS software on Linux server cluster to simulate single-atomic layer sheets at different temperatures.
  • Analyzed MD data in MATLab to understand how thermal fluctuations affect thin-sheet materials, such as graphene.
  • Used Fourier transformations on out-of-plane height data in MATLab to calculate height-height correlation functions, which were then compared to theoretical model.

Physics Master's Research

California State University, Northridge: Physics
Northridge, CA
08.2016 - 12.2019
  • Researched the many-body localization (MBL) quantum phase for a quasi-Heisenberg spin- model on a 2D rectangular lattice.
  • Managed project code via Github
  • Developed program in Python to generate and manipulate data for exploring spin-model.
  • Utilized mutli-dimensional arrays to store and manipulate data for thousands—gigabytes worth —of eigenfunctions generated by program to explore spin-model.
  • Discovered unexpected energy level clustering from data, and used the Brody distribution function to derive a distribution for the Adjacent Gap Ratio for our data.
