My most up to date webpage is located here.
I have accepted a position as Research Associate with Michigan State University.
Since August 15, I have been working on the ATLAS Experiment
and based at CERN.
In May 2006 I completed my PhD in the Physics Department
at the University of Wisconsin-Madison working under the supervision
of Professors Wesley Smith
and Don Reeder.
I conducted particle physics research as a member of the ZEUS
Collaboration. The ZEUS detector measures electron-proton collisions in the HERA
accelerator and is located at the DESY Laboratory in Hamburg, Germany.
The topic of my research was "Rapidity Gaps Between Jets in Photoproduction", which
involved the investigation of the rate of color-singlet exchange between two high-energy jets
in hard diffractive photoproduciton.
I served two years as the trigger coordinator for the ZEUS
QCD working group.
The Wisconsin group at ZEUS is responsible for maintaining the
Calorimeter First Level Trigger.
