About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Adulting to the best of my ability between all the fun stuff.

ABOUT ME

I recently finished a Ph.D. in physics, focusing on cosmology. I've worked at t hi-tech company with some pretty awesome people, then quit my job to attend the International Space University, which is where I am at the moment! I also manage the second largest scifi convention in Israel. :)
I'd like to meet people from all over the world, especially if they can teach me something interesting I don't yet know. Don't ask me what that thing might be, since there are many things I want to learn and (I'm sure) many things I would enjoy learning but don't know it yet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sitting in a remote country pub in Ireland, watching my host and about ten locals playing a completely improvised Irish music session...
Also, my friends are quite amazing people, as I find out every once in a while.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about physics and space, and love to explain it to anyone willing to listen. There are many other things that I know something about, but I'm not sure it's enough to actually teach... In general, I'm open to all kinds of questions, and will be happy to participate in discussions on almost everything, contributing my point of view and whatever knowledge I may have on the subject.
