Hello! I'm a professional astronomer who likes building scientific instruments, working with software, and especially smashing those two together to make cool stuff. You can find (some of) the online places I lurk in the links below.

I'm currently the Head of Instrumentation at Lowell Observatory. Before that I was an Instrument Scientist at Lowell, and before that I was the Instrument Scientist during commissioning and acceptance for the High-resolution Airborne Wide Band Camera (HAWC+) on NASA's Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA).

If you need to get in touch with me, I'd suggest twitter. You can find links to various things that might be useful down below. See you around!
