My background is in theoretical physics, with a Ph.D. from Princeton University where I worked on computational particle physics.
For the past thirty years, I have been a Senior Computer Specialist and the Linux Guru for the Physics and Astronomy departments at the University of Washington (Seattle), entrusted with the care and feeding of the departments’ Unix/Linux workstations and servers.
I plan on using GitHub to share the various software tools I've created over the years.
