About Me.
A sports fanatic and a food enthusiast.
I wear many different hats as a particle physicist, adjunct lecturer, and former college basketball player. I am currently working on the CMS experiment at CERN studying the interactions of light as a way to search for extra dimensions in our universe.

Senior captain of my collegiate basketball team, Student Athlete Advisory Committee president, and project manager of various research projects for CMS.
Read MoreProblem Solving
I’ve spent copious amounts of time solving physics problems and debugging codes. Problem solving has become a strong suit.

Cheered on by thousands of spectators, in 2012 Nik Wallenda fulfilled his child hood dream by tight rope walking across Niagara falls. Wallenda finished his journey faster than expected and even completed the process with a trot.
While suspended in the air, a tightrope walker has one goal - to reach the other side. From that person's point of view, there are two directions they can move along the rope - forwards or backwards. But what about something smaller, say an ant? The ant could move forwards and backwards, but could also walk around the rope in a circle.
So depending on the perspective, there are actually a different number of directions for motion.
