I am a Solar Physics PhD Student at
Montana State University, conducting research under
Dr. David McKenzie. As a manager of the Space Public Outreach
Team, SPOT, I
was responsible for sending presenters, primarily undergraduates,
to K-12 classrooms around Montana, sharing information about current NASA missions.
Now, I work as a planner for the TRACE
satellite and study flares as seen by SXT, part of the
on the Yohkoh satellite.
