As someone who declared physics in their 5th year of undergraduate, SPS means a community of peers that reminds me of what brought me to university in the first place!

Do you like jazz?

I do. It's been a few years since I've performed with a jazz band, but I think I am ready to get back into it.

The past few weeks I have been inverstigating how well an AFM probe can image metallic strips embedded in substrate materials

This sort of measurement is of interest to manufacturers who are now beginning to explore 3D integrated chips

Week 5 - Anniversary blackjack and a lazy weekend

This past week was uneventful in both the internship and my personal life.

My girlfriend and I stayed home most of the week and cooked.

It wasn't until Thursday, our anniversary of 4 years, that we decided to get out.

My last post was a bit rushed and late; I hope this post will be more substantial.

I started off the week in New Orleans. Little sleep the 2 nights before and another 12 hours of driving ahead of me.

I climbed into my car with my friend and my cat and we hit the road.

A bit late to the party, but here goes

Started the internship off with a rocky start. I had to move out of my apartment the same day the internship started, then had to make a 1,400 mile trek from South Texas to South Florida. But luckily my supervisor is super understanding.
