I’m a Staff Scientist at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), working in the Accelerator Physics Group at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS). Previously, I completed a Ph.D. in physics at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and a B.S. in physics at Wheaton College (IL).

My research focuses on measurement, prediction, and control of intense beams in high-power accelerators. I’m currently interested in collective effects and instabilities, phase space painting, and phase space reconstruction. See here for a bit more info and here for a list of papers and talks. I also sometimes write about my work on my blog.
