Ph.D. Minor, Computer ScienceBioI am a Physics Ph.D. student at Stanford University, also pursuing PhD minor in Computer Science with AI specialization. I work in the group of Prof. Tony Heinz. I am interested in studying opto-electronic properties and emergent phenomena in novel two-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures. My current research focuses on transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) homo- and heterobilayers. I completed my B.S. in Physics from Harvard University where I worked in the group of Prof. Philip Kim on interlayer excitons in WSe2/MoSe2 heterostructures and quantum transport in WSe2 mono- and twisted homobilayers.

BioI am a student in the physics PhD program with an interest in quantum gravity, mathematical physics, and some aspects of condensed matter physics. My main work has been on a subject called `moonshine' which explores particular relationships between number theory and group theory through the lens of string theory.
