Abstract I study physical properties of submicron aerosol particles and their dependence on size, composition, and relative humidity (RH). I utilize cryogenic transmission electron microscopy to image submicron particles and I have developed a flash freeze technique that allows for the imaging of particles captured at specific RH values. Previously, I constructed a laminar flow reactor to study heterogeneous reactions between mineral dust and organic compounds to mimic atmospheric interactions. My future research interests include studying atmospherically relevant systems, combining experimental data with modeling, and designing new techniques to advance the study of atmospheric systems. My job interests include postdoctoral positions and government. The preferred geographical location is the Eastern United States but is negotiable.
