Physics Graduate Student 

The Hirst Lab

Univeristy of California, Merced

Physics graduate student by day; advocate for fun, accessible science activities for kids and their (responsible) adults by night and day

Welcome to my site. I am a physics graduate student (and a mom) studying fundamental Soft Matter Physics

in the Hirst Lab at the University of California, Merced. I love the work that I do and hope to create content and a Circus of Science program to bring fun, accessible physics and other science demonstrations to children and adults

(especially children at heart) of all ages and walks of life. 

Please see my Research Interests and CV for more information about me.

If you have questions or suggestions for fun science activities and demonstrations you would like to see, please contact me.
