Graduate Fellow

Astronomy and Astrophysics
I’ve always been fascinated by any and all things science, but astronomy always stood out above the rest. This fascination quickly developed into a love of physics and a strong desire to understand what makes stars tick. This led me to obtain my BS in physics from Iowa State University and my MS in physics from the University of Delaware. Currently, I am pursuing my PhD in physics at UD where I use telescope observations and computer models to study the origin, evolution and physical properties of the most rapidly rotating massive stars, known as Classical Be stars.
