Carlson

Dan grew up north of Atlanta, Georgia and graduated from the University of Georgia in 2017 with a B.S. in Physics and a B.S. in Chemistry. As an undergraduate he worked on the fabrication of composite plasmonic nanostructures, studying the effect of nano-scale structure on macro-scale optical properties. However, after a summer working with ultrafast lasers under Dr. Stephen Leone in 2016, he was hooked on pursuing ultrafast science as a career -- eventually joining the KM Group in the spring of 2018 as a member of the soft x-ray team. He enjoys fly fishing and backpacking, as well as both writing and playing music.
