Projects worked on in ETH:
I have completed two projects in my time with ETH. The first is a interactive website showing the construction process of the ITLL using videos and text excerpts provided by Jim Diekmann in Civil Engineering. The second is a basic animation of the San Juan Mountains, showing their volcanic activity 30 million years ago. This was for a research group in the Geology department headed by Paul Weimer. I used the freeware Blender program to construct this animation. My current project is for Fran Bagenal in Planetary Science constructing an interactive flash movie that shows the cratering rate of a planet over time given certain constraints (size, temperature, etc.).  
  Hobbies: Watching Football, Hockey and Baseball. My favorite teams are the CU Buffs (for college), Denver Broncos, Colorado Avalanche and St. Louis Cardinals. I am also really interested American History topics such as the American Revolution and Civil War.
