Curriculum VitaeAvailable upon request, for a specific purpose. There are things on the CV which I personally don't feel the need to be shown off on a day to day basis. Personal achievements should remain personal. I deeply believe that honors and awards should play a lesser role in judging one's professional abilities.

Major Research Interest:
Experimental Fundamental Symmetries + Instrumentation
"The chart below roughly represents all the major projects, also each listed on the Research page. 'Precision fundamental physics' + 'supporting instrumentation' is as best a description that I can come up with to summarize my interests in a few words. The direction of interest seem to point towards those experiments that try to answer nuclear-particle physics questions using techniques from various energy regimes of nuclear physics, atomic physics, certain brands of particle physics, even low temperature physics and, crystallography. That means I like to investigate particle properties, measure fundamental constants, test fundamental symmetries and essentially search for new physics while also hunting for confirmation of known theories. I am scatter brained, but there is some order to the chaos."
