CurrentDisplaced Electrons Search -For my dissertation, I led a team of collaborators in the first ATLAS search for Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics in 13.6 TeV proton-proton collisions. These are the highest-energy collisions ever recorded, and the result represents the cutting edge of searches for BSM physics at the energy frontier (see a summary of our findings: https://atlas.cern/Updates/Briefing/Displaced-Tracks-Run3) Run Coordinator, Liquid Argon (LAr) Detector-Oversaw smooth operation of LAr detector data-taking during the commissioning and deployment of an upgrade to LAr at the start of ATLAS Run 3 in 2022. This required vigilant monitoring of LAr during collision runs, management of daily run meetings, coordination with experts from other detector subsystems, and real-time problem solving to ensure optimal data acquisition. LAr HL-LHC Upgrade Front End Board R&D - Tested custom Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) chips for High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) upgrade by programming and sending simulated physics signals to prototype chip. Measured chip response to characterize chip energy resolution for physics signals during future HL-LHC data taking.
