Hey! Nice to meet You.

My name is Raunak Roy and I am a Freshman in the class of 2029. I currently live in North Carolina and I aspire to become an Astrophysicist. I am an overachiever who keeps a perfect GPA and wins Math and Science Competitions. 

​

Astrophysics interests me because it combines deep theoretical questions with observations of the universe, from black holes to dark matter. I am especially motivated to pursue this field at a high academic level, with the goal of acquiring a PHD at a prestigious university like Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Duke, or MIT. At this university, I can develop strong research skills. My primary ambition is to become an astrophysicist and contribute to advancing our understanding of the cosmos. Ultimately, I hope to work at NASA, where  research connects fundamental physics with real-world space missions.
