Making Space Travel as Easy as Catching a Bus

I am an advocate of space exploration and utilization. I am dedicated to the development of partnerships and alliances that accelerate the development of the space frontier. I will create or support any project that facilitates this process. My goal is the make space travel as easy as catching a bus.

I am a member of the National Space Society of Australia, and contribute regularly to events including the Australian Business Development Conference and the Australian Space Science workshop.

 

 

Executive Director, Space Generation Advisory Council

I am currently serving as the Executive Director of the Space Generation Advisory Council. My work is to devise the 2007-2008 strategy for the organisation, so that it can become more active worldwide. I am very excited to have been chosen for this important task, and look forward to seeing some tangible results.

Post Graduate Research

I recently completed my PhD in Physics at the University of Sydney. My research was on the Stray Light design of the MONS space telescope. MONS is the primary payload of the proposed Danish satellite mission, Roemer. Being involved in a satellite mission from its beginning to end was a valuable experience.

Undergraduate Research

I completed an honours degree in Physics studying the Electric field distributions in planetary foreshocks.
