During the summer of 2024, I participated in Penn State’s Physics REU, mentored by Dr. Sarah Shandera. I developed a simulation of a quantum circuit to study the domain of positivity for individual qubit maps and analyzed various thermodynamic and information-theoretic properties.
During Summer 2023, I participated in LSU’s REU program, mentored by Dr. Gabriela González, working on LIGO data analysis and noise characterization.
During my junior year at Carthage College, Dr. Joseph Anderson and I developed a new method for the pair correlation function for circular objects. I then used this to compute correlations functions of circular density fluctuations in the CMB for my physics thesis.
I have included some of my undergraduate research projects and their deliverables here.
