I am telescope scientist for the Blanco 4-m telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory [2], Chile.  I am an instrumentalist at heart, but sometimes get involved in studying Cataclysmic Variables and related objects.  Recently I have been chasing Fast Radio Bursters and Superluminous Supernovae with a bunch of Aussies.  Since I am a founder member of The Dark Energy Survey (DES) [3]collaboration I also get to claim I do observational cosmology.

In a gratifyingly successful effort to get naturally cagey engineers and astronomers to talk to eachother, I moderate the CCD mailing list CCD-world [4].

I was, in reverse order: astronomer in charge at The Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) [5], support astronomer at NOT [6], resident astronomer at The Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope [7], fellow at The European Southern Observatory [8], La Silla, graduate student at The University of Texas at Austin [9] and undergraduate at the University of Oxford.
