GREETINGS, EARTHLING. You have reached the deep-space terminal of Science Officer Thane of STARBASE 451. We are currently broadcasting live from the Pennsylvania sector. I am an astrophysicist, engineer, and programmer. By day I research Active Galactic Nuclei, and how their powerful jets interact with their host galaxies. In addition to this research, I study their formation mechanisms, and how they evolve over cosmic time. By night I photograph the world with my Nikon Z fc, and create epics in tabletop dungeons as a Dungeon Master.

Recent highlights: NASA-funded researcher (Summer 2025) and recipient of a Research Fellowship (June 2025), working toward publication of a VLASS triple radio source catalog in ApJS.

This site documents my ongoing mission: to catalog the stars, fight monsters in tabletop dungeons, and build strange machines in the holodeck. Thanks for visiting, and please sign the guestbook before you leave!! MISSION STATUS: ACTIVE
