About
I am currently a Research Scientist in the Physics Department at Virginia Tech. My research area is experimental nuclear and particle physics. During my Ph.D. research, I worked in two high-precision experiments PREX-2 and CREX, which measured neutron skin thickness in 208Pb and 48Ca nuclei respectively. Currently, I am involved with the MOLLER project, which aims to make an ultra-precise measurement of the weak mixing angle. My working areas are detector design, beam line equipment development, simulation, construction, and data analysis.
