Hi, I am a second-year Physics student completing my last semester at Ohlone College before I transfer to a four-year university.

Within my college, I helped reinstate our SPS chapter, and currently serve as its President. Through my college's SPS chapter, I created and ran the Ohlone Rocketry Team as its team lead, and had us become 1 of 50 institutions (and 1 of 2 Community Colleges) to qualify for the NASA USLI competition.

I also have had research experience designing a UV sensor on a water chemistry project that was submitted to the CCIC competition organized by the NSF and AACC, for which my team and I were invited to the Library of Congress as finalists.

I currently work as a Physics tutor within my college under the brilliant Dr. Hazelton. I help assist students in his class with lab experiments, demonstrations and understanding lecture materials. I also offer 1-on-1 tutoring to students from all other Physics courses.

As the current (2022-23) AZC for Zone 18, I have had an incredible time connecting with the wonderful leaders, mentors, and peers in our zone and across the country. I look forward to many more experiences with this wonderful community down the line!
