Hi, I'm a professor in the department of physics at SUNY-Oswego. I teach a variety of courses ranging from introductory physics (University Physics I & II) to upper level (University Physics III, Modern Physics, Optics & Electronics). I also teach introductory labs as well as advanced labs (Optics Lab and Electronics Lab).
My current research interests involve precision atomic structure measurements using laser spectroscopy as well as the study of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in support of quantum memory development.
