So long CU! Thanks for the wonderful adventures 🦬

Baby’s first single-author paper! ...or is it? Turns out testing for baby universes in your AdS bulk is trickier than expected. Check it out: arxiv.org/pdf/2507.05337

My 7th grade biology teacher once lit germ-x on fire to demonstrate that it was “alive” based on our textbook’s definition. Needless to say, the demo really stuck with me!

The summer after graduation is the perfect time to finally organize my Overleaf projects. Feels so good!

First day of #TASI2025 was a success!

I learned so much from the international students I studied alongside at Georgia Tech and CU Boulder. They made me a better physicist — and a better citizen of the world. www.npr.org/2025/05/22/n...

Discovered a new isometry last week! V = U ( 𝟙 ⊗ |PhD〉)

a massage isn’t enough I need to be spaghettified by a black hole

Does that mean the walls are CFTs??

Delayed post, but I passed my defense on Tuesday!! So thankful to all who helped make this dream a reality

Thank you @booker.senate.gov. Truly inspiring!

Sad that I wasn't able to join, but so good to see Coloradans showing up. Thanks @aoc.bsky.social and @sanders.senate.gov for making a few stops in colorful CO!

Thesis submitted to committee ✅ Doctoral final examination form submitted ✅ Defense announcement form submitted ✅ T-18 days till defense!

And it's live! arxiv.org/pdf/2503.09681 What's our role as observers in the universe? We discuss how observers might be included in holographic codes. A 🧵... (1/9)

Coming tomorrow to an arXiv listing near you!

Bummer! I used TeX for Gmail all the time. Any suggestions for an alternative?

This one hits close to home. My first exposure to research was at the LSU REU program in the summer of 2016. I learned so many skills I still use today - Python, Mathematica, and the basics of how to do research - and published my first paper as a result. Truly a loss for our young scientists

Me when I code (no matter how many comments I leave myself!)

That’s my Representative!

Applied for graduation ✅ Scheduled defense ✅ Reserved room ✅ April 8th, here we come!

When you get assigned hot pink in the new shared Overleaf document...

Preparing my 2025 Day of Light outreach lectures, I bought a glass sphere and made a rainbow. But I saw some odd things, and so here’s a thread with some photos and raytracing pictures. There may well be mistakes so tell me and I'll fix them. First the basic setup showing the primary bow.

Let the thesis writing begin!

Very well said. Also loved the shoutout to @staceyabrams.com’s Assembly Required podcast. Another great resource!

Nothing like a good Lego date night. Y’all take care of yourselves out there 🌹

Excited to share that I've accepted a postdoc fellowship at @perimeterinstitute.ca starting this fall! Looking forward to joining a fantastic group of researchers studying Holography and Quantum Information. Here's to new adventures!

Hello Bluesky! 👋🏼 Been on the app for a little bit, and figured it was time I introduced myself. Happy to chat about all things holographic and non-isometric!
