Overview
I am from Utah and graduated from Utah Valley University with a bachelors in physics. I have worked as an observational astronomer for the University of Utah and the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory while working at the Whipple observatory. I have built a lot of astronomy software which has helped plan observational measurements, analyze large amounts of galaxy data, and software which simulates cosmological models. I also run, play video games, and do a variety of other more average things. I run an outreach website www.astronomaestro.com where I publish blogs on a variety of topics which are directed to a more general audience, which you can check out if you are interested.
