DEPARTMENT: Chemistry
Dr. Moon is a fellow Trojan and earned his Ph.D. in Chemistry right here at USC in 2023. He might have even been a student at the same time as some of you! While not much of a woodsman, Dr. Moon enjoys a leisurely stroll every now and then. On campus, he lectures for both General and Organic Chemistry, but when he’s out of the classroom he can be found doing the New York Times games or watching a musical. Also, ask him about his cats!
