Experience Across Scale
My work in physics and engineering spans orders of magnitude, from kilometer-scale instruments to some of the smallest physical changes ever detected.
Precision optical systems spanning kilometer-scale baselines.
Building and aligning complex optical experiments.
Small components, fixtures and optical hardware.
Understanding localized behavior in precision optics.
Nanometer-scale measurement of optical wavefront distortion.
Suppressing residual motion in optical cavities.
Measuring differential length changes at extraordinary precision.
About Me
I’m an experimental physicist and systems engineer with over two decades of experience in ultra-precise instrumentation, control systems, and optical sensing. My work has spanned academic research and large-scale international collaborations—including the Nobel Prize-winning detection of gravitational waves—where I’ve led efforts in laser stabilization, adaptive optics, and thermal compensation systems.
What drives me is building real, working systems that solve complex physical problems. I thrive at the intersection of theoretical insight, hands-on engineering, and collaborative problem-solving.
I'm known for delivering clear technical communication and for mentoring early-career scientists and engineers. Whether I'm debugging in the lab, analyzing data, or writing software to automate an experiment, I’m focused on precision, clarity, and impact.
