My education and the bulk of my work and research is in particle and accelerator physics, and acoustics. However, before any of that, starting around 11 yrs old, I worked as an airbrush artist in a t-shirt shop, learned Photoshop, Illustrator and PageMaker in my dad's photography studio, and 3D in Ray Dream Designer (during the 80's and 90's). I consult as a fine artist and designer, and produce my own work, with a focus on bridging art, science and music through my own professional grounding in all three.
