San Francisco Bay Area

I work on the beam generation systems of Varian linear accelerators, with focus on the control systems. I ensure that the systems operate safely and efficiently, delivering the best possible care for patients.

Santa Barbara, California Area

I am doing research using EEG on anticipatory effects. This research entails investigating event-related potentials, alpha wave suppression, and phase correlations. Key Responsibilities:- Supervision of research assistants- Gathering of EEG data- Design and programming of experiments (using C++ and MATLAB)- Analysis of data using MATLAB

El Segundo, CA

ICBM Nuclear Safety Cross-Check Analysis/ Performance and Technical Evaluation/ Independent Verification and ValidationI worked on the testing, analysis, and simulation of the targeting and navigation software of the U.S.'s ICBM arsenal. My work included control systems, debugging, software testing, and trajectory simulations.

Santa Barbara, California Area

I was a co-founder of the TANC Lab (a 501c3 tax-exempt non-profit) to study pre-stimulus anticipatory activity (PAA) in an interdisciplinary fashion between research psychologists and physicists. The lab was absorbed into UCSB as of September 2017 and all staff were transferred into UCSB positions.

Wako, Japan

At RIKEN (RIKEN Radiation Laboratory), I analyzed electron data from the PHENIX experiment taken at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (located in Brookhaven, NY) in order to study the physics of charm and bottom quarks in high energy nuclear matter. This research has been published in Physical Review C. I assisted in RHIC-PHENIX detector operation.

Doctor Of Philosophy (Ph.D.), Physics

I researched the production of D0 and Ds mesons generated in Cu+Cu collisions at a beam energy of 200 GeV per nucleon pair at the STAR at.
