Class Projects

Graduate

Here are some projects and other things I did as a grad student in different courses.

Stars

In my stars course we were assigned a final project in which we needed to investigate something about stars/stellar evolution. I decided to use the MESA stellar evolution code to learn more about how it treats convection and how shifting the parameters that control convection can impact a star.

I ended up having some difficulty with running MESA locally so I ended up using the MESA-web platfrom which was incredibly useful.

Undergraduate

Here are some visuals/projects I did in undergrad. Cheif among them is my senior thesis I did which was the culmination of about a year or so of research with the FOGGIE collaboration. The following summer lead to me developoing SALSA and submitting to JOSS.
