Hello! A Wyoming child, I love words and the natural world. In mid career as an astrophysicist, I study galaxy evolution and I know a fair bit about spectroscopy. This blog is an outlet for me to explore a broader range of topics than the merely technical. I discuss science, writing, music, critical thinking, and I slip in updates on Ace Carroway, adventurer extraordinaire.
