A career timeline built from the work history available for this profile.
Facility Manager: Uitf Particle Accelerator
The UITF (Upgraded Injector Test Facility) is a ~10 MeV research accelerator with a flexible design housed at Jefferson Laboratory. It is presently configured for electron production via a photo-gun, acceleration with a High-Q Superconducting Radiofrequency pair of Niobium cavities, and beam delivery to a cryogenic target of an experimental design.
Jan 2021 - Jan 2022
Senior Crew Chief
Mar 2020 - Jan 2022
Low Energy Recirculation Facility (Lerf) Operator (Matrixed)
Responsible for safe operation of the Low Energy Recirculation Facility (LERF) & associated energy recovery linac, tunable megawatt-class IR & UV free electron lasers, & associated user facilities. This bridged multiple machine/personnel reconfigurations as division and departmental reorganizations have occurred. The facility lied dormant and empty for.
Oct 2015 - Jan 2022
Superconducting Radiofrequency Institute Acceptance Testing Engineer (Matrixed)
Accelerating cavity/module acceptance testing engineer for various lab facilities (JLab/SLAC). In situ performance optimization during operations, to include troubleshooting of off-nominal problems. Ex.: Contamination removal via thermal cycling, field emitter ablation with a Helium plasma, etc.
Feb 2010 - Jan 2022
Crew Chief
As Operator/Crew Chief In-Training, but with responsibility of absolute management of site operations, maintenance, program execution, and accelerator safety while the accelerator is operating. Crew chiefs serve both as line managers and safety officers which execute the nuclear and accelerator physics program. Department staff are frequently matrixed out.
Sep 2013 - Mar 2020
Crew Chief In-Training / Ac-1
As Operator; but training for the above crew chief position. CEBAF down for 2 years in this period in order to double accelerator energy reach, hence the long training period. Matrixed to both Cryogenics & Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) Institute to support lab critical-path projects.
Oct 2011 - Sep 2013
Cryogenic Technician (Matrixed)
Limited duty operation of a more than 50kL liquid Helium cryogenic plant from 300 > 2K, as well as supporting infrastructure and facilities. Assisted in installation of second 2K/4K refrigerators doubling plant capacity including wiring, valves, PLCs, etc. Support SRF installation operation.
Sep 2012 - Dec 2012
Accelerator Operator (Cebaf)
Responsible for safe troubleshooting and operation of the CEBAF particle accelerator to support experimental nuclear physics research. Supporting systems include (super)conducting RF/magnets, cryogenics, high voltage/vacuum systems, beam injection systems, optics maintenance, etc. Radiation and personnel safety monitoring components were also significant.
Mar 2009 - Oct 2011
Free Electron Laser Operator In-Training (Matrixed)
Responsibility for the safe operation of a megawatt class Free Electron Laser for research purposes for the benefit of several entities inside DoD, DOE, & NASA (materials testing, Carbon nano-tubule manufacturing, etc.). Limited funding and resource availability resulted eventually in program being dissolved.
Jul 2009 - Sep 2010
Radford University Planetarium Operator
Operation of the Radford University Planetarium including star tours appropriate to the season, guided planetarium shows, and occasional operation of the Selu Observatory.
Oct 2004 - May 2007
Labratory Assistant - Department Of Chemistry And Physics
- Preparation of materials for laboratory experimentation, supervision of the labs while students learned (including answering questions, explanations, etc.), cleanup, and frequently grading both in varied subjects of.

Sep 2004 - Apr 2007
Tutor - Learning And Resource Center (Larc)
Upon demand - and by appointment - tutor students in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, or Mathematics (through Calculus).
Oct 2005 - Dec 2005
Peer Instructor- Peer Led Teaching And Learning (Pltl) For Dept. Of Chemistry And Physics
Administration of problem sets for the Peer-lead team learning program (PLTL) as part of a grant made to the school. Duties included presenting problem sets to introductory Chemistry classes (Chem 101/102) and leading them through issues they encounter in solving them via instruction and questioning.
Sep 2004 - May 2005
