ABOUT ME

I love astronomy! I am particularly fascinated with time, the multiverse, and information paradox. Also interesting is the idea that space may emerge from quantum entanglement. These are big ideas though, so for now I'm busy studying and training to be the best astrophysicist I can be so that one day I'm able to devise methods that will contribute some mathematical answers. 

Beyond my astronomical interests, I adore my family, love the beach, think Kanye West is genius, enjoy playing tennis, and live for exploring new places.
