About Me

I'm a planetary scientist and computational physicist. My primary areas of interest are scientific modelling, visualization, magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and software engineering. I've studied the Sun (somewhat) and Saturn's upper atmosphere (much more) by developing simulations involving magnetohydrodynamics. I currently teach at UWEC.

I'm idealistic and try to be kind.

Thank you for this community.
