Background:
I was born and raised in the Dallas/Fort Worth, TX area and went to Austin for my
undergraduate studies. I gained a passion for running and outdoor activities in my
20's and have thoroughly enjoyed my time so far in Wyoming. I've had great opportunities
to gain knowledge and experience at UW while also having great outdoor experiences
when not in school!
Degree Sought and Department:
PhD in Chemistry
Education:
BS in Chemistry, University of Texas at Austin
Current Research:
Solar energy is the most abundant renewable energy source. As a chemist, I investigate
new materials that convert light into electrical power. Ideally those materials are
cheap and easy to make as well as non toxic.
