My main field of research involves X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy and related techniques as applied to environmental science and materials physics. I am the author of several programs for EXAFS analysis as well as a few other tidbits. I am a member of the Synchrotron Methods Group of the National Institute of Standards and Technology's Ceramics Division and I am stationed at Brookhaven National Laboratory's National Synchrotron Light Source. I am a graduate of the Physics program at the University of Washington.

In the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy 
of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day 
   when black will not be asked to get in back, 
   when brown can stick around ... 
   when yellow will be mellow ... 
   when the red man can get ahead, man; 
   and when white will embrace what is right. 
That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen.

             Rev. Joseph Lowery, Benediction to Barack Obama's Inauguration
