About Me

I am an undergraduate student driven by a strong curiosity about the Universe and its fundamental structure. My academic interests lie at the intersection of astronomy and physics, with a particular focus on understanding the invisible components of the cosmos.

I am especially interested in how galaxy groups and clusters can be used as tracers of underlying dark matter halos, and how multi wavelength observations reveal the physical processes shaping cosmic environments.

Academic Direction

Alongside formal coursework and independent study, I actively seek research oriented environments that allow me to work with real data, develop analytical thinking, and collaborate with researchers in astronomy and astrophysics.

My long term goal is to pursue graduate studies in physics or astronomy and contribute to fundamental research addressing open questions in cosmology, including the nature of dark matter and the formation of large scale cosmic structures.
