  • Developed python simulations to model scenarios for the early orbital evolution of the solar system. The goal of the research was to explain how the faint young sun paradox and the observed evidence of fluvial erosion on the Martian surface from 4.1 billion years ago could be reproduced by an outward evolving Martian orbit . • Created hundreds of simulations that ran on Penn State's super cluster. Simulated close encounters between planetary bodies, tidal evolution of the Earth Moon… Show more • Developed python simulations to model scenarios for the early orbital evolution of the solar system.

Simulated close encounters between planetary bodies, tidal evolution of the Earth Moon system, and the migration of the gas giants as part of the Nice model. • Presented at a national conference for the American Astronomy Society and was a contributing author for a research paper my mentor, Dr. Darren Williams, is still working on.

  • May 2018 - Aug 2018

  Erie, Pennsylvania, United States • Experimentally studied the rheokinetics (curing rates) of LORD adhesives applied the research to the varying needs of our customers. • Gained a familiarity with experimental research in the private sector. Published an internal paper on my work and presented findings to the chemical R&D team.
