I'm a <del>final year PhD student</del> postdoc (yay!) in the Physics Department at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, working in the area of high energy particle physics. I work on a number of different projects, among them: | I'm a postdoc in the Physics Department at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, working in the area of experimental high energy particle physics.
