Background: My interest in
astronomy goes back to 3rd grade in which I was asked to write a report
on Saturn. Shortly thereafter I owned a small telescope and began
darkroom work in astrophotography. In college, I began as an astronomy
major, and then realized that the related field of astrophysics is what
really engaged my interest. I eventually obtained my Ph.D. in Physics
with a specialty in astrophysics. In particular, my research passion is
quasars (and other extragalactic neclei) and quasar jets. Along the way
I was continually inspired and assisted by my mentor, the very esteemed
and world renowed Philip Morrison of MIT.
