ABOUT

Noah hails from Sykesville, Maryland, the coolest small town in America. He earned his BS in Chemical Engineering from the University of Maryland, College Park, in 2020. At UMD, most of his time was spent in the student government office, in lab, or in a music practice room. After taking a pandemic gap year and moonlighting as a software engineer, Noah came to Stanford to start his Ph.D. in 2021. In Noah’s free time, he plays cello in the Stanford Symphony Orchestra, and enjoys backpacking, cross-country skiing, traveling, or just hanging out at the pub.
