I am an Associate Research Professor in the Solar
Physics Group at Montana State University. My work
focuses on observations and analysis of solar flares
and the structures which produce them; the behavior
of magnetic fields during flares; and the heating of
stellar coronae. For these studies, I primarily use
ultraviolet and X-ray observations from telescopes
orbiting the Earth. I work with graduate students
and other faculty at MSU, and partners at other
institutions, to operate NASA's TRACE satellite and
the X-Ray
Telescope on the JAXA/NASA/UK Hinode
satellite. I'm also involved in
education & public outreach projects related to
solar and space science.
