Brief Biographical Sketch:
I enjoy recreational physics/mathematics, 3D sculpture, C++ programming, and recently - rockets. 2 summers ago, I decided to learn Quantum Field Theory before coming to MIT. Past Classes(Clicking a class title will bring you to the course's section of the corresponding course catalog)S13414: Atomic Theory I: The Basics in Splash 2019 (Nov. 23 - 24, 2019)
From "opposites attract and likes repel" to why we say an atom has protons, neutrons, and electrons - an experimental journey into the basics of chemistry.
S13416: Atomic Theory II: Modern Concepts in Splash 2019 (Nov. 23 - 24, 2019)
Discover the reality of the quantum model. Figure out what stops protons from pushing each other out of the nucleus.
Impress your chemistry teacher with these and more!
S13417: Atomic Theory III: Mostly Particle Physics in Splash 2019 (Nov. 23 - 24, 2019)
Break protons and neutrons into quarks and gluons, think about waves, learn about energy and the rest of the Standard Model.
For pure enjoyment - topics you won't see for 4+ years. First half is an overview, the rest is pure math.
P12884: Atomic Theory I: The Basics in Spark 2019 (Mar. 16 - 17, 2019)
From "opposites attract and likes repel" to why we say an atom has protons, neutrons, and electrons - an experimental journey into the basics of chemistry.
P12885: Atomic Theory II: Modern Concepts in Spark 2019 (Mar. 16 - 17, 2019)
Discover the reality of the quantum model. Figure out what stops protons from pushing each other out of the nucleus.
Impress your first chemistry teacher with these and more!
P12886: Atomic Theory III: Mostly Particle Physics in Spark 2019 (Mar. 16 - 17, 2019)
Break protons and neutrons into quarks and gluons, think about waves, learn about energy and the rest of the Standard Model.
For pure enjoyment - topics usually covered after high school. First half is an overview, the rest is pure math.
M12888: Geometry in Spark 2019 (Mar. 16 - 17, 2019)
The essential properties of n-dimensional worlds.
No classification of shapes, angle-finding, or proofs - just thought experiments about funky objects.
M12334: What is a vector? in Splash 2018 (Nov. 17 - 18, 2018)
No magnitude. No direction. No arrows. No lies. The general truth about day 1 of every STEM class.
S12335: Atomic Theory I: The Basics in Splash 2018 (Nov. 17 - 18, 2018)
From "opposites attract and likes repel" to why we say an atom has protons, neutrons, and electrons - an experimental journey into the basics of chemistry.
S12336: Atomic Theory II: Modern Concepts in Splash 2018 (Nov. 17 - 18, 2018)
Discover the reality of the quantum model. Figure out what stops protons from pushing each other out of the nucleus.
Impress your chemistry teacher with these and more!
S12337: Atomic Theory III: Mostly Particle Physics in Splash 2018 (Nov. 17 - 18, 2018)
Break protons and neutrons into quarks and gluons, think about waves, learn about energy and the rest of the Standard Model.
For pure enjoyment - topics you won't see for 4+ years. First half is an overview, the rest is pure math.
P12087: Atomic Theory I: The Basics in Spark 2018 (Mar. 17 - 18, 2018)

P12089: Atomic Theory III: Mostly Particle Physics in Spark 2018 (Mar. 17 - 18, 2018)
Break protons and neutrons into quarks and gluons, think about waves, learn about energy and the rest of the Standard Model.
For pure enjoyment - topics usually covered after high school. First half is an overview, the rest is pure math.
Z12090: Broad History of American Politics in Spark 2018 (Mar. 17 - 18, 2018)
From Federalist Papers about factions to the Constitution, Jackson, slavery, populists and progressives, wars, civil rights, conservatives, and Trump.
The themes they love in AP US History.
S11694: What's the Matter? in Splash 2017 (Nov. 18 - 19, 2017)
From Greek philosophy to models of the atom to relativistic quantum field theories, explore in depth how experiments have shaped the modern understanding of the constituents of matter.
