Her work focused on understanding how the degree of order in nanoscale structures affects their scattering and structural color. She developed computational tools to predict scattering in these systems, and she tested these models through fabrication and experimental characterization. Outside of the lab, she enjoys science writing. She earned her PhD from Harvard in 2022. - ## Research projects [Structural color](/research-areas/structural-color) - ## Current and former members [Alumni](/taxonomy/term/14601) [PhD graduates](/category/phd-graduates)
