I am primarily interested in astronomical instrumentation and how novel approaches can expand our observations, and joined APS to work with Professor Kevin France and the UV group. I previously worked on fiber optics under Professor Tuttle at the University of Washington for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. I enjoy working on my cars and hanging out with my birds in my spare time.
