I am a graduate student at the James C. Wyant College of Optical Sciences at the University of Arizona. I will be working to develop ultraprecise on-machine metrology solutions for diamond turned freeform optics in the Imaging and Applied Optics Lab headed by Professor Rongguang Liang. Outside of lab I enjoy shaping wood or Skandinavian Folk Dancing.
