I’m really passionate about math, physics, and computer science, and so I study these subjects in my free time for several hours a day. I really enjoy learning about particle / quantum physics and technologies that these fields can be applied to. Additionally, I enjoy math fields such as analytic number theory and algorithmic combinatorics. I’m currently researching Young tableaux as part of the MIT-PRIMES program.

I want to study math and physics at MIT. Down the road, my dream is to pursue a PhD in theoretical physics, using my joint math and physics backgrounds to unify the Standard Model of particle physics with gravity, giving humanity a more complete understanding of the world around us.
