About Me
I'm a postdoc at the
University of Minnesota
where I work in the
stochastic group
and the
calibration group
of the
LIGO
experiment. I also chair the
hardware injection
group. My research interests include gravitational waves, neutrinos, cosmology, astrophysics, and particle physics. I received my PhD from the
University of Washington
where I studied astrophysical neutrino point sources with
Super-Kamiokande
. My BS is from the
University of Michigan
, where I worked for
CDF
and on the development of flat electron beams for use in the proposed NLC.
