About Carrie Volpert

A little about me...

I am an Astronomy PhD student at the University of Maryland, College Park supported by the CRESST II collaboration at NASA Goddard Spaceflight Center, working on the FIR balloon experiment, EXCLAIM. I am from the Philadelphia area, though my family lived for several years in London, UK. I obtained my bachelor's degree in Physics (with an astronomy specialization) from the University of Chicago in 2017, and my master's in Astronomy from the University of Maryland, College Park in 2020.
