I'm an electrical engineering PhD student from Columbia,MO. My general focus is in the pysical electronics area (electromagnetics, lasers, power electronics, semiconductors). Specifically, I am interested in the fields of plasma physics and pulsed power. I hope to be able to contribute to the power electronics areas in Wikipedia. It seems that there is room for development in the power converters sections. Hopefully in the future, I can move into the areas of ferroelectricity and pulsed power.My masters thesis was on a large, high voltage gas closing switch. For my PhD, I am studying a RF driven ferroelectric plasma ion source for space propultion.

Lately I have been working of disambiguation. [[1]] I have found it gives a decent opportunity to get exposed to a lot of different subjects.
