About Me
BS in physics from Kansas State University (1996). At Kansas State, my research involved the characterization of the liquid-vapor surface of a critical binary liquid mixture using ellipsometry. The mixtures I studied were polymer solutions and ionic solutions.
PhD in physics from Cornell University (2001). At Cornell, my research involved strategies for improving protein crystallization, emphasizing the role of impurities in limiting protein crystal quality. Primary experimental techniques included two-photon fluorescence microscopy and x-ray topography.
Current interests at Westminster include various aspects of liquid droplet behavior and magnetic materials, as well as the projects I am currently working on with my experimental physics class.
Married, 5 children.
Runner and ultramarathoner. Running (or ran) my 11th ultra on October 13, 2012--the Oil Creek trail 100K.
Black belt in Tae Kwon Do at the Pennsylvania Martial Arts Academy in New Castle.
