I'm currently in Graduate Student at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks.  I've recently defended my PhD in Space Physics, under Dr. Heinz Wiechen.  My work focuses on numerical simulations of dusty plasmas in the space environment.  I'm currently in the process of making corrections to my thesis and applying for postdoctoral research positions.  My hobbies include motorsports, flying airplanes, and figuring out how to pay for the first two.
