Pronouns: He/His

I am an experimental nuclear physicist with interest in all things nuclear and in teaching modern physics concepts. 

I obtained my PhD at the University of Liverpool, then came to BNL as a Post-Doc. This inspired me and I went on to an academic career at the University of Manchester, then Yale. I then moved to the Physics Division at Argonne National Laboratory for most of my research career. I then moved back to academia at the University of Massachusetts, Lowell, before returning to BNL in the Nuclear Science and Security Department.
