I worked as an undergraduate research assistant with The High Resolution Fly's Eye Collaboration (at the University of Utah) and The FLASH Collaboration (at SLAC, the Stanford Linear Accelerator) from 1998 -- 2002. I worked primariy on detector calibration and data analysis with Charlie Jui, John Matthews, and Stan Thomas.
