Hello!

I am current first year graduate student at Pennsylvania State University! My research interests include Scattering Amplitudes for Quantum Field Theories and their machine learning implementations. I am affiliated with the Institute for Gravitation and the Cosmos here at Penn State under my advisor Professor Jacob Bourjaily.

My (research) story so far:

I started my research life at the University of Virginia under Professor Simonetta Luiti, studying the Generalized Parton Distributions in nucleons. My work with her group culiminated with a paper on parameterization of Generalized Parton Distributions. While attending the Transverse Momentum Distribution Winter School, I was lucky enough to talk with Professor Zhongbo Kang about our shared interest in Effective Field Theory methods for QCD. While at UCLA, I was introduced to machine learning through numerous converations with graduate students at UCLA after I spent a summer there working with Zhongbo Kang and Farid Salazar on Effective Field Theories. My experience at UCLA, led me to pursue a Fulbright fellowship in Heidelberg, Germany under Professor Tilman Plehn studying and applying bayesian neural networks to LHC data which resulted in a paper. Also during my senior year, I collaborated with Abdelmalek Abdesselam on a project studying the mathematical aspects of Quantum Field Theory resulting in a paper Professor Now I am a first year graduate student at Pennsylvania State University, looking to my time here in State College! I am starting this website as a first year as a way to document some of the cool things that I read and projects that I code up.
