Outreach
Outreach
Here is an incomplete list of various service activities I have been involved in through the years:
A free virtual international program first created at ODU but now hosted by UC Berkeley to allow aspiring Scientists to hear about cutting-edge research from experts
The program includes mini-courses, lectures, and a mentoring program.

Stories about REYES:
by the US Department of Energy
by ODU
Summer program for aspiring students wanting to learn to program
Hosted hybridly. The in-person portion is being hosted by UC Berkeley, while it is casted live by REYES.
co-created with Ted Rogers
This program selects the top theory students graduating from a Mexican university and allows them to come to UC Berkeley and/or Berkeley Lab in the summer to carry out research with a local mentor.
Recent participants include:
Luis Clemente [to visit Berkeley in 2025]
Diego Hernandez Kent [visited Berkeley in 2023]
Jose Antonio Flores Gutiérrez [visited JLab in 2019] - now Freie Universitat Berlin Master student
Felipe Ortega-Gamma [visited JLab in 2017] - now a postdoc at UC Berkeley
Marco Carrillo [visited JLab in 2016] - now an ODU Ph. D. student
High Achieving Latinx in Engineering and Sciences (HALES) - [2019]
High Achieving Latinx in Engineering and Sciences (HALES) - [2019]
An initiative to draw high-achieving Latinx to ODU, JLab and NASA.
HALES website - includes application for 2020 program.

Thoughts on diversity
Thoughts on diversity
The late Ann Nelson was among the strongest advocates for diversities in Physics and Science as a whole. In 2017, she wrote a powerful commentary in Physics Today, which strongly resonated with me then and continues to this day. The piece, title "Diversity in physics: Are you part of the problem?", is worth reading for everybody in the field.
I co-wrote an opinion piece explaining the need for diversifying the sciences and create pre-college outreach programs in order to achieve this goal. The article was published by the Virginia Pilot.
