An experimental physicist looking at the fundamental quantum mechanics of single quantum emitters in solid state systems (defects in diamond and SiC, InGaAs quantum dots). I teach courses in introductory mechanics and electromagnetism to undergraduates at the U.S. Naval Academy. I am also in the U.S. Navy Reserve where I serve as a Science and Technology liaison and an anti-submarine warfare watch officer.
