She is passionate about thermodynamics, teaching students about the wonders of the cosmos, and spending quality time with family. She also enjoys making up wild and scary stories for her nieces and nephews, playing the piano and guitar, and making a mess of DIY home improvement projects. Professor Matt McQuinn is a theoretical astrophysicist and cosmologist at the University of Washington. He studies the evolution of cosmic matter from the infant Universe up until the present. Basically, he refuses to study anything unless it’s larger than a galaxy! He loves the dark universe, crazy space telescope ideas, and quantum mechanics.
