Philosophy:

 

> Be involved in a variety of activities

- See the links for details on specific research areas.

> Avoid fancy software whenever possible.

- They make pretty pictures, but often hide the generality and the patterns within the physics and the math. I do use these types of tools, but only when needed.

> Most of the fun is in the journey and not the destination.

> Sometimes less is more.
