SWAG视频 Me

I am an engineering professor as well as a theoretical physicist. I love researching the fundamental laws of the universe and sharing the excitement of these ideas with others. There is nothing more gratifying than to see someone get excited about a subject, accomplish a project, and succeed in their dreams. I have devoted my life and my career to making that happen.

Why I鈥檓 At Mary

I was invited to the University of Mary in 2015 to start the Hamm School of Engineering. This task has now been accomplished and I am extremely proud of what, together, we have built. The University of Mary is a unique place with amazing faculty and students and I am happy I have made a home here.

Expertise

My research is in High Energy Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics, and Black Hole Astrophysics. I am passionate about Mathematics, Theoretical Physics, Engineering, and Philosophy and I am happy to discuss any of these things with students and colleagues.
