I teach introductory physics, optics, thermodynamics, modern physics and the associated laboratories. My interests are in atomic, molecular and optical physics including measurements of fundamental properties such as absolute oscillator strengths, branching fractions and electron impact cross sections. Interested students are encouraged to visit my laboratory in Olin Science Hall, room G13.
