Astrophysics teacher | Verified Expert
I'm an Astrophysics graduate from Texas State University, passionate about unraveling the mysteries of the cosmos. With a deep understanding of celestial phenomena, I bring clarity to complex concepts. Whether it's the intricacies of stellar evolution or the nuances of quantum mechanics, I'm here to guide students on their journey through the cosmos of knowledge. Let's explore the universe together, one question at a time.
