Employment History

Brookhaven National Laboratory - Upton, New York (03/2019 - 10/2025) Physics Associate III - Accelerator Operator - Contributed to cutting edge scientific research by ensuring precise and accurate data entry in order to tune and maintain high energy proton/ion beams for RHIC, NSRL, and BLIP.

• Entered data for hundreds of magnets & instrumentation, tracked changes, identified inconsistencies, & implemented solutions in a timely manner.

• Paid meticulous attention to detail to ensure precise data entry where errors would result in damage to expensive components.

• Responsible for writing daily electronic logs summarizing data, prob- lems, and fixes implemented which were used by the Collider- Accelerator Department (C-AD).

• Communicated with various experts to arrange upgrades and fixes for equipment spanning the BNL CA-D complex.

• Completed side projects with various experts to upgrade and improve the work flow for the C-AD Operations Group.

V olundr Forge - Bayport, New York (04/2015 - 05/2018) Owner/Operator - Founded small business specializing in the production of replica medieval arms.

• Led the design of all products and prepared them for one-o and small batch production.

• Optimized production processes, which led to a 27% average reduc- tion in materials costs.

• Improved productivity by designing and implementing a resin mould- ing process which led to a 73% decrease in production time. Additional Research Experience

”Measuring the Hyper-fine Land e G-factors of 85Rb and 87Rb by Optical Pumping” Undergraduate Research, Department of Physics, Stony Brook University

• Collected, compiled, and analyzed large recorded data sets to ensure accuracy while running the experiment.

• Wrote a MATLAB script, utilizing the Biot-Savart law, which precisely calculated the magnetic field strength using large data sets recorded during the experiment.

• Measured the Land e G-factors within 0.5% of theoretical values. Andrew Houston
