They/Them

I am queer and I am a planetary science student and science communicator.//

 

I am currently an undergrad studying Geophysics and Astrophysics at the University of Chicago. I am really interested in planetary science, bioastronautics, and space architecture.
I love communicating with the public about space science, especially young kids. I want to utilize the disadvantaged background I comeĀ from and inspire kids who are in a similar situation to pursue science and believe that they have a place in this field!
It took me some time to finally come out to the people closest to me, and even though not everyone took it well, I am happy to be who I am and really proud. I want to do my best to become an advocate for racial and gender minorities in the space industry and to change what the everyday person looks like.
