I am interested in …
What are you working on?
I work in theoretical particle physics, focusing on Quantum Chromodynamics, which is the bedrock of our understanding of quarks and gluons, the fundamental particles we are made of. I study infrared divergences, in particular their resummation and parton showers. These areas are linked by the common thread of dealing with the infinities inherent in our theory, striving to tame them to provide precise predictions for collider experiments such as the Large Hadron Collider.
What are you looking to get out of the DRSTP?
My main goal in the DRSTP is to build a strong network of theoretical physics PhDs and, of course, to make new friends!
What interests do you have apart from you research?
Beyond physics, I have a wide range of interests, including photography, design, reading, and traveling.
