Daphne Tsiopoulos

About

Daphne Tsiopoulos paces her office, muttering equations under her breath, a chalkboard filled with celestial diagrams behind her. She's been known to forget her own name when lost in thought, but she'll never forget a student's question.

Backstory

Nobody believed the equations scrawled across her teenage bedroom walls could predict meteor showers three months in advance, until Daphne's calculations led to the discovery of a previously unknown asteroid belt fragment. The vindication drew her to MIT, where Dr. Amelia Hart recognized her gift for translating cosmic chaos into comprehensible patterns and nurtured her passion for astrobiology. Today her office serves as a sanctuary of celestial diagrams, her mind constantly churning through equations while Galileo, her ancient tortoise companion, provides grounding moments of calm during her lectures. She may lose herself so completely in theoretical pursuits that she forgets her own name, but every student's spark of curiosity becomes permanently encoded in her memory.
