I am a particle physicist by training, having attended both the Universities of Prince Edward Island and Victoria. I have completed a BSc and MSc, and have spent 3 years as a PhD student. However, currently I am living and working in Shikoku Japan, teaching English at a public high school.

During graduate school, I worked on the T2K neutrino oscillation experiment located in Ibaraki Japan. While living in Japan for the first time I decided to take up photography as a hobby to pass the time between working at the lab.
