I am a graduate student at Iowa State University in Ames, IA in high energy astrophysics.

I will be doing my Ph.D. with VERITAS, a gamma ray astronomy experiment located in Arizona. Grad school is tough with the 12 hour work days, endless grading, and homework problems that do not make any sense unless you were born in Hilbert space. My old professors at the University of Minnesota did a great job of preparing me. I am hoping to pursue a research career after grad school. Given that the average Ph.D. student here takes five years to graduate, maybe I will decide to do something else!
