I’m a chemistry student at Indiana University with a particular interest in polymer science and the development of sustainable, biocompatible textile materials. Outside the lab, I practice Brazilian jiu-jitsu and dance, sew, and read about science, spirituality, and the more-than-human world.

For the past year, I have also coached artists through IU Innovates, Indiana University’s entrepreneurship accelerator, helping them develop their ideas and build sustainable structures around their creative work.

I co-write a Substack about Brazilian jiu-jitsu with my partner, BJJ coach and athlete Jacob Clark.
