      I'm a research associate at the Carnegie Observatories and primarily work on the Carnegie Supernova Project.  I also spend part of my time providing support for the Observatories by helping staff with their computers, maintaining the website, and providing backup support for the computer system in general.  In general, my research interests involve cosmology, the distance scale, and also applying numerical techniques for scientific inference.
