I retired from SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in June 2024 after 43 years physically at the Lab, 37 of them employed by Stanford. I worked on three ground-breaking experiments, first in particle physics and then in particle astrophysics:
SLD ,
Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope
and the Vera Rubin Observatory .
Historically outside of work, I first obsessed with squash, then ultimate frisbee and
stained glass work ,
and lately goaltimate frisbee and kayaking (5 years of Bair Island
photos ). Since 2000,
there has been a lot of travel.
