About Me

Picture
My name is Samuel Solomon and I was an MIT undergraduate who majored in chemistry-biology (5-7) and physics (8) with a minor in nuclear engineering (22) and computer science (6). I have really enjoyed my time learning under some amazing professors and wanted a way to conglomerate and convey scientific principles to anyone interested.
