Consulting

I take on consulting projects that draw on my research, industry and teaching experience.

Utility metering

Meter testing, accuracy and data questions, AMI deployments, and test-lab setup for metering and distributed energy equipment.

UL standards testing

Planning for UL and related safety and performance testing: test plans, pre-compliance checks, lab setup and getting ready for certification.

Product development

From idea to working prototype: requirements, optics and electronics design, test fixtures, 3D-printed parts and validation.

3D printing and rapid prototyping

Fast-turnaround engineering: CAD, 3D-printed parts, fixtures, mounts and enclosures, and quick design iterations from sketch to working part.

Energy planning for homes and businesses

Solar, battery storage and load planning: sizing, tradeoffs and a clear plan before you buy.

Physics teaching

Course design, Canvas course shells, demonstrations and lab activities, and interactive simulations for physics courses.

Scientific consulting and measurement

Measurement design, precision optical and electrical measurements, data analysis, and special projects that need careful experiments.

Giving a talk at SACNAS 2016

Science outreach and lectures

Talks and demonstrations on science, physics and astronomy for schools, libraries, clubs and community events.
