I chose physics because I was more interested in understanding physical theories rather than application. Physics has a certain elegance and beauty to studying it.
Physics helps my problem-solving skills grow, and astronomy helps my perspective grow. I hope to do research in particle cosmology, and I am currently in a research group studying dark energy.
