I'm a astrophysicist and engineer. I study the transition from Population III to Population II star formation in the context of turbulent mixing in the very early universe (about 200-800 Myr after the BB). I'm investigating this transition via large scale cosmological simulations. I'm also an engineer with IRIDIUM, Inc. where I work on the next generation of comm satellites.
