Research Statement

I work at the experimental interface between particle and astrophysics. My primary interest is in trying to detect cosmological dark matter, which could be hypothetical particles produced in the Big Bang. To meet this experimental challenge, I am working with collaborators on the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search experiments which use sensitive particle detectors in a very low radiation environment to look for the rare events due to dark matter interactions.
