About Me

I am a physical chemistry graduate student at UC Berkeley interested in probing the surface of aerosols to track chemical changes and pathways in environmentally relevant conditions. I have recently completed my Bachelor’s degree in chemistry at the University of Toronto working with Jamie Donaldson on coupling acoustic levitation and UV-Vis absorbance to measure the pH in-situ of ~1mm droplets. In the Wilson group, I will continue working on single-droplet systems using different trapping methods and spectroscopic techniques. I will examine the chemical make-up of droplets as they undergo reactions to gain fundamental insight into the processes governing heterogeneous reactions.
