Hi, I'm Yemi!
I recently graduated from Stanford University with a masters degree in Materials Science and Engineering, and I also hold a bachelors degree in Materials Science from Carnegie Mellon University w/ a minor in biomedical engineering.
My past research and industry work has focused on computational and experimental materials characterization and discovery, ab initio physics simulations, molecular dynamics, and materials synthesis. I am interested in pursuing process engineering roles but also open to other positions as well.
I have done internships at The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, Applied Materials, Agscent USA, as well as research projects during my undergraduate and graduate degrees, which you can check out below!

Minor in Biomedical Engineering
2D Materials and Computational Research
Quantum Espresso DFT Simulations to explore the effect of biaxial strain on the electronic band structure and phonon dispersion of WS2 and other 2D materials.
Using a Generative Adversarial Network, I was able to instantly generate thousands of realistic optical spectra of 2D materials with varying defect densities.
Using a large Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) image data set from the AMES national laboratory, I implemented an object detection algorithm in python to characterize the surface roughness of these materials.
We investigated the use of Hyperspectral Optical Microscopy for characterizing and analyzing physical properties of 2D semiconductors and heterostructures.
