I am a PhD candidate in applied physics at Rice University and a member of Dan Mittleman's research group.  My research involves studying the properties of certain materials using Terahertz radiation. I also  work on investigating more efficient ways of guiding terahertz radiation.

My undergraduate work was in Physics at Southern University, Baton Rouge where I was affiliated with the science and engineering honor organization named Timbuktu academy headed up by Dr. Diola Bagayoko. After my undergraduate work, I remained at Southern and pursued a masters in Physics with a concentration in astronomy. My research advisor was Greg Stacy.  My role models and inspirations for pursuing graduate work have been my mom and Dad whose site resembles mine alot:)
