    Biography: Currently working towards a PhD in Physics at Virginia Tech and loving every second. My research is in Non-equilibrium statistical mechanics; namely, looking at the dynamics of charge carriers in 2D and 3D coulomb glass given different stimuli. Photography is just a hobby, but a hobby that has consumed my life (when I am not working on physics).
