I used to be a graduate student in Abhay Pasupathy's lab in the Department of Physics at Columbia University. I used scanning tunneling microscopy to visualize the spatial structure of electronic wavefunctions in various materials. Sometimes the results looked interesting, and occasionally I understood them. Now, I am a data scientist at Birchbox where I hawk beauty products.
