I’m a PhD candidate in the Materials Science and Engineering Program at WSU, advised by Dr. John S. McCloy. My research focuses on growth of bulk single crystals, specifically with the Czochralski technique, and investigating their material, electrical and optical properties. I commonly utilize techniques such as Hall Effect, DLTS, UV-vis-NIR, Raman, Luminescence, XRD and SEM. Currently I am working on Ga2O3, an ultrawide bandgap material with novel electronic and optical properties. I received my Bachelor of Science in physics at Central Washington University. While there, I investigated the magnetic phase diagram of Ca2Co3-xMnxO6 through various thermodynamic measurements at low temperature advised by Dr. Benjamin D. White. I really enjoy spending time with my family and loved ones, cooking and baking, and hitting the trails in my Subaru. I love hiking… but who doesn’t!
