Biography:
I have been working as a research scientist at the Measurement Standards Laboratory of New Zealand since 1991. My research interests include iodine-stabilised lasers, laser interferometers for measuring gauge blocks and line scales and coordinate measuring machines. I work with KiwiStar Optics on the metrology and alignment of large optical systems.
In my spare time I build ceramic and wire sculptures based on mathematical concepts.
