Bio
Brad Conrad
Simon is a detail oriented researcher who has a track record for finishing complex and taxing projects to completion in a dynamic work environment. A consistently hard worker, Simon is easy to work with, great at team dynamics, and was able to balance working on several important tasks in a high stress situation. I wholeheartedly recommend Simon as a Physicist, researcher, and group leader.
Vitaley Zaretskey
Simon is a dedicated and hard-working graduate student with experience in data analysis and experimental work including cryogenic and vacuum systems.
