Hi,

I hold an M.A. in Physics from Western Michigan University, and now work as a technician at Purdue University (West Lafayette, IN). I'm also a former Peace Corps volunteer (Fiji).

I recently won a grant to upgrade computers in some of Purdue's physics labs and its student help center, and I had BOINC installed as a service to make use of otherwise idle CPU cycles for physics research.

I'm also running LHC and climate prediction.
