Senior🎓
Top SchoolWilliam Wills is a PhD candidate and graduate research assistant at Washington State University with nine years of hands-on experience at the intersection of computational physics and software development. He studies computational quantum fluid mechanics using Bose-Einstein condensates, combining numerical simulation, scientific programming, and experimental collaboration to probe complex quantum flows. His background includes teaching and mentoring as a graduate instructor and TA, plus leadership of avionics software teams for Georgia Tech’s NASA Student Launch project, reflecting both pedagogical skill and systems-level engineering. Comfortable moving between theory, code, and hardware, he brings practical experience from undergraduate research at Georgia Tech and early roles in avionics and stage production that sharpened his problem-solving under pressure. Based in Pullman, WA, he pairs rigorous physics training with a developer’s attention to reproducible, maintainable computational workflows.
