About this blog

This summer (actually winter there) I will be living and working at a research nuclear reactor outside of Pretoria, South Africa. The current plan is to work for ten weeks then travel for two around the country. I am currently studying Nuclear and Radiological Engineering at Georgia Tech, and the work will build upon my experience this semester doing undergraduate research using MCNP and SCALE software packages to model particle transport.

Hopefully I won't get eaten by a Lion.
