Bio:

I am one of the few ESS mains in this tourney who focus more on astro than on earth science (IESO ppl tend to focus more on earth sci and less astro). This year on the USAAAO open (which is the most similar to science bowl astro), I got second place in the country. I'm also very good at earth sci (I've beaten IESOs in 1v1s) and I can do a lot of conceptual physics and math questions that require more clever solutions.

Awards/Experience: doing scibowl for 6 years, made it to nats for the third year in a row (top 16 in 2021), also beat sanjay and david's team at SBL *wink wink*
Olympiads/Competitions: Did AIME, USAPhO, and USAAAO this year, made it to second round on all of them
Textbooks/Courses: AP Calc AB, AP Physics 1 and 2, Tarbuck earthsci, Marshak geology, Ahrens meteorology, Trujillo oceanography, Essential Cosmic Perspective Astro, Carroll&Ostlie astronomy (graduate-level), a lot of Wikipedia and hour-long lectures on YouTube, also I am currently in the process of writing a cosmology textbook
