Education:

2003-2008, PhD, UC Berkeley (Advisor: Ken Raymond)

1999-2003, BS, Yale University

 

 

Research:

My research focuses on the development and study of systems that 
combine photodriven charge separation with proton reduction 
catalysis.  With these systems we hope to gain a greater understanding 
of the requirements for achieving photocatalytic hydrogen production.
