A hiatus in my studies, a conscious choice made,
In physics' vast fields, my curiosities laid.

My time at Stanford, a memorable phase,
In gamma-ray bursts, my interest ablaze.
The power, the afterglow, a mystery to chase,
Collaborating near and far, a rewarding embrace.

The enigma of dark matter, my focus then turned,
At Fermilab's expanse, where wisdom is earned.
A detector pioneering, my contribution told,
A narrative still writing in science's fold.

My odyssey took me to NASA's vast shore, 
Within JPL's walls, wisdom began to pour. 
Through the eye of the Roman Coronagraph, aligned, 
I sought out Jupiter-sized exoplanets, hidden in the cosmic design.

In a quaint French town, I finally stood,
Monitoring collisions in CERN's neighborhood.
A dance of particles, fast and bright,
In Run3's rhythm, a breathtaking sight.

A year of exploration, fulfillment, and wonder,
Publications, experiences, connections without number.
Now ready to leap, to risk, to soar,
To start a new chapter, to explore evermore.
