I am a native of Austin and enjoy the outdoor activities here including mountain biking, swimming and fishing. However since beginning engineering school at UT in 1997 these activities have been a bit curtailed. My interests include photolithography, molecular process modeling, dynamics and control, transport and surface phenomena, optics, and physical chemistry.
