I am a graduate student at Penn State working on my PhD in Astrophysics. I was born and raised in Bakersfield, California, graduated from West High School in 2000, and majored in Astrophysics at UC Berkeley. I am currently studying the oldest nearby star cluster Ruprecht 147 with Professor Jason Wright, and our work is supported by the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship and NSF Astronomy & Astrophysics Grant Programs.
