  • Sep 2014 - Dec 2018

  Analyzed electronic and thermodynamic properties of polymorphic organic molecular crystal systems. Utilized solid-state density functional theory and time-domain terahertz spectroscopy to support fundamental and applied research projects. • Initiated research work integral to the development of a new crystal structure prediction program; project work helped develop methods combining molecular and solid-state computational methods with X-ray crystallography concepts for predicting crystal structures from single molecule. • Pioneered fields of research to contribute to published works on topics including stabilization of anhydrous and hydrated D-mannitol crystals, comparison of intermolecular forces in anhydrous sorbitol and solvent cocrystals.
