Hi!
I'm Albany
Physics PhD Student @ UCB | Occasional Creative
Hey there! My name is Albany Blackburn (they/she), and I am currently a second-year physics PhD student at UC Berkeley. Before Berkeley, I got my BS in Physics at Harvey Mudd College. Most of my experience to this point has been in particle physics phenomenology, but I am now studying climate dynamics!
When I'm not doing physics grad student things, you might find me playing music, writing poems, drawing, or planning fun and wacky events. If you're interested in any of these pursuits, please don't hesitate to reach out! You can get hold of me at albany_blackburn AT berkeley.edu
An overview of my research interests and projects
Some of my lesson plans on introductory optics, special relativity, and quantum mechanics
A selection of my poetry
A small portfolio of some of my favorite drawings
A place I'd eventually post performances and anything I write (coming probably not that soon)
Posts about life, happiness, physics, grad school, hobbies, and probably many combinations of all of the above (coming soon!)
