SUMMARY • Six years in hands-on experimental experience and four years in computational languages. • Skills for many commercial instruments. Please refer to SKILLS below. • Experience of clean room, optics, device physics, laser physics, plasma physics, and material science. My goal is to move into a more senior- or managing- level position. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss in more detail how my background prepares me to deliver the results you need.
