Profile Summary

I am a (sub-)mm Instrument Scientist / Astronomer at the European Southern Observatory (ESO), working on ALMA development. I am also a leader in the Atacama Large Aperture Submm Telescope (AtLAST) project, and an active member of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT), MUSTANG-2, Simons Observatory (SO), and CMB-S4 collaborations. I graduated in 2009, and have worked on a range of radio through terahertz instruments, both interferometric and single dish, using heterodyne amplifiers and direct detection bolometers or kinetic inductance detectors, and from the ground and suborbital platforms.
