Sydney Seltzer

Hi, I’m Sydney Seltzer. Currently, I am a 2nd year Physics and Chinese major at the University of Denver. For the past two years I have been deeply involved with research and the society of physics students. My time with the society of physics students and my research has allowed me to learn so much more of the beauty of physics that is not traditionally taught in a classroom. I have been researching polarization entangled photons for the past 3 months, and before that, I was researching the orbital angular momentum of light for a year. Throughout the research process, I’ve learned how to communicate with others about complex scientific topics and become more curious about the field at large. Recently, I was elected as treasurer for the 2026-2027 academic year. As treasurer, I want to continue engaging in community outreach and leading our club. With my term ahead of me, I plan to take our chapter to a national physics convention, which DU has never done before, and much more.
