From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'm a theoretical physicist, currently working as a post-doctoral researcher at UCLA. I graduated from the University of Michigan recently with my PhD in physics and received my B.S. in physics at the University of Delaware. My research mainly involves topics related to string theory. In the past, I've done much work on strings in two dimensions although my current projects involve other topics relating to gauge/gravity duality. I'm also very interested in the thermodynamics of black holes and the relationship between thermodynamics and gravitation in general.
My Wikipedia activity is mostly in talk page discussions or in correcting errors in science articles. I also have a few pet projects below which I have started or contributed the majority of content; they are small articles but I'm trying to make time to expand them.

[edit] Some pet projects on Wikipedia
One thing that I found very nice about mathematics articles on Wikipedia is that there are many technical articles that I can go to for use in my research. I would like to encourage more physics articles like this. Somewhat in this vein, the above pet projects of mine are meant to discuss some more technical and specialized topics in string theory.
