My vast professional network includes world-class researchers and decision-makers at universities, national labs, and private companies. Let us help you reach your goals!As Grand Projects Business Development Manager with a background in physics and a wealth of experience, I helped researchers succeed. I’ve worked to help implement lasers for nuclear fusion, material processing, imaging, Thomson scattering, holography, ablation, LIBS, LIOB, laser-based acceleration, attosecond science, XUV, high harmonic generation (HHG), generation of high-pressure and high-temperature conditions similar to those found in planetary interiors or in the explosion of a nuclear device, ICF, artificial stars, any many other aspects of high energy physics research, as well as useful fields like materials processing, surface functionalization, laser shock peening, cutting, brazing, welding, etc.I’ve worked with wonderful groups at national labs (ANL, BNL, Fermilab, LBNL, LLNL, LANL, ORNL, PNNL, SLAC, NREL, NETL, INL, SNL, NSLS, NIST, NSO, etc.), LaserNetUS network, and leading universities (MIT, Stanford, Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Cornell, Columbia, Brown, Duke, U. of Maryland, Rochester, UVA, UF, UCF, CREOL, etc.), and many companies.With my expertise in experimental physics and my ability to lead long-term, multifaceted projects to completion, I can understand your needs and help provide cutting-edge solutions, whether it's a high-energy Yb fs laser (up to 500 mJ, 500 fs, 100 Hz), high-energy Nd laser (Nd:YAG or Nd:glass, up to kJ, 0.1 Hz), OPCPA, Ti:Sapph (TW or multi-PW, at high repetition rates), or even a high power CW laser. My fluency in English and Russian and my ability to connect people across cultures allow me to effectively communicate with clients and ensure that they are aware of all the solutions -- I’m happy to point in the right direction. My skills in data analysis, team management, product development, public relations, technical education, and intercultural facilitation have allowed me to make complex ideas and processes accessible to people from many cultures and backgrounds. With over two decades of experience working with and training students worldwide, I have repeatedly conceived of, developed, and implemented strategic innovations with cross-cultural international teams. With my passion for using cutting-edge technology to turn grand research ideas into reality, I was excited to be a part of a great team pushing the boundaries of science and build Grand Projects. Now that I'm moving on, I'll help you find the solutions you need!
