Updates:
April 2024 - Decided to continue with both Prof. Bol and Prof. Zimmerman (experimental and theoretical, respectively) for my PhD journey! Will not be a comfortable journey considering my no prior experience with experimental chemistry and solid-state simulations! But PhD is the place to challenge yourself with the biggest academic challenge! Very excited about the journey!
January 2024 - Started my second mandatory research rotation with Prof. Bol to synthesize 2D layered nanomaterials experimentally!
August 2023 - Started my first mandatory research rotation with Prof. Zimmerman to work with Selective Configuration Interactions!
July 2023 - Arrived in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA, to start my PhD journey with the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor.
February 14th, 2023 - Secured three digits of citations with two of my journal publications! Happy Valentine's Day!
