About Me
Hello, I'm thrilled to be part of the Seattle Astronomical Society, a community that shares my lifelong passion for the wonders of the cosmos.
My fascination with astronomy and astrophysics began in elementary school, where I eagerly read every book I could find on outter space, from asteroids to quasars. Those early years were marked by memorable moments spent with my dad and a 4.5" Newtonian reflector. Observing Saturn's rings and Jupiter's moons in the crisp, cold, clear northern Wisconsin nights.
I'm now based in Mill Creek, Washington, working as a senior software engineer. I enjoy keeping up to date the latest discoveries and papers in astrophysics and astronomy, always eager to expand my understanding of the universe. I'm looking forward to how I can contribute to SAS as a whole, and more directly in my local community. My current setup is an 8" Celestron Newtonian telescope on an EQ AVX mount.
Beyond the realm of astronomy, life is a blend of family time with my wife and two sons, woodworking, keeping up with Formula 1, and enjoying a good read. Some of my recent favorites include Carlo Rovelli's "Reality is Not What it Seems," Sabine Hossenfelder's "Existential Physics," and Peter F. Hamilton's Commonwealth Saga.
I look forward to connecting with fellow skywatchers here at SAS.
