Research Interest
Research interests include searching for signs of new physics in high-energy hadron collisions at the CDF experiment, such as leptoquarks and supersymmetric particles. Additionally, my group is designing a sophisticated electronic processor that identifies muons in the CMS experiment presently under construction.
