about

I'm a graduate student at the University of Colorado in the High Energy Physics and my advisor is Uriel Nauenberg. As part of the CMS experiment, I study supersymmetry, and, in particular, I work on analyses involving the search for Gauge Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking with photons. I also work on commissioning the Forward Pixel Detector, part of the Tracker.

I'm originally from Littleton, Colorado but did my undergrad at Caltech in Pasadena, California before coming back to CO. Now I work at CERN and live just outside Geneva, Switzerland.

Things I like: being pulled into a dance, accidentally impressive billiard playing, kate spade, airports, weather, and scandalous photographs...finding a great skirt, getting a turn down without missing a beat, well-executed winks, engineers, my black dance sneakers, re-discovering a great album, driving with the windows down and the music up, and hot chocolate...also red shoes, etiquette, phone calls from friends, jane and real simple and, most importantly, seed...being a girl in physics, unpretentious novels, my ipod, my address book, and my silver hoop earrings.
