What do you do here at Wright Lab? I’m a member of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Group working on the ALICE experiment. My research studies the interactions between jets and the Quark-Gluon Plasma.
What is the most unique and/or exciting experience you’ve had here at Wright Lab? My research group likes to get pizza together whenever we’re celebrating a major event in our group. Of course, they all recommended that I try the mashed potato pizza for the first time. It was certainly a very unique experience for someone who grew up on Jersey pizza, but at least the company was great!
What are you looking forward to in the coming year at Wright Lab? I’m looking forward to working at CERN this year! I’ll be there for six weeks, and I’m so excited to meet some more people in my experiment and get started on my analysis!
What is something that people might not know about you that you’d like to share with the community? I can play the tuba!
