I am a recently-graduated researcher in the McQueen lab. I am broadly interested in the intersection of materials chemistry, condensed matter physics, and quantum materials. I am particularly motivated by the way chemically precise materials design may provide insight into unresolved physics problems. My strengths lie in solid state materials synthesis, floating zone single crystal growth, powder x-ray diffraction, and Laue diffraction.
I am currently exploring the origin of color in YbxLu2-xTi2O7 and its relationship to the materials’ magnetic ground states. Previous work includes the development of a new synthetic method for Lu3Al5O12 single crystals and an exploration of material aging in the (Ba,Sr)2CaWO6 systems.
