Comfortable leading technical activities as well as contributing independently in fast-paced R&D environments.
Principal Nuclear Engineer at Argonne National Laboratory (2019-09 – Present)
Support DOE and NNSA programs in isotope production, accelerator development, nuclear engineering, and applied research.
Postdoctoral Fellow at Northern Illinois University (2017-01 – 2019-01)
Integrable Optics Test Accelerator: developed symplectic-map methods for arbitrary 3D magnetic fields, adapted Normal Form techniques for integrable optics, and created Truncated Polynomial Series Algebra data structures for general PDE and ODE solvers.
Research Scholar at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (2016-03 – 2017-01)
Large Hadron Collider Upgrade Program: developed and validated a long-range beam-beam compensation model for the LHC, demonstrating its potential to improve beam lifetime.
Project Associate at CERN (2013-02 – 2016-02)
CLIC and LHC Upgrade Programs: developed symplectic tracking methods, studied LHC collimation and luminosity-monitoring systems, optimized the LINAC4 beam-loss monitoring system, and designed radiation shielding for CLIC control electronics.
Senior Researcher at Joint Institute for Power and Nuclear Research (2005-12 – 2013-01)
Accelerator-Driven Systems and Nuclear Measurements: developed experimental and non-destructive-assay methods, produced nuclear-reaction data included in EXFOR, and supported the design, commissioning, and operation of nuclear facilities.
