Research Interests:
I'm part of effort to design and construct the near detector of the upcoming Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment in the US. DUNE will make precision measurements of neutrino flavor change using a beam generated at Fermilab, a suite of near detectors also at Fermilab, and far detectors located 1300 km away at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in South Dakota. To help better predict the neutrino fluxes in manmade beams I am part of the the NA61/SHINE experiment at CERN.


I was a collaborator on the T2K long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment in Japan. This experiment is producing a beam of muon neutrinos and sending them through Japan. We detect the neutrinos in a Near Detector, and 295 km away in the Super-Kamiokande Detector. T2K has observed the disappearance of muon neutrinos and the appearance of electron neutrinos. Prior to T2K, I worked on the MINOS long-basline neutrino oscillation experiment. My dissertation research was on solar neutrino data from the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
