Participated in the DOE funded Research Experience for Undergraduates program through the University of Tennessee, Knoxville's Department of Chemistry. Worked under professor Bin Zhao researching liquid crystalline polymers (LCP) and the electrocaloric effect. Synthesized and analyzed a set of LCP samples looking to induce the chiral smectic c phase into a formerly researched LCP by adjusting the side chain substitution.
