I trained as an astrophysicist, specializing in gamma-ray astronomy. My education took me from St. Gregory’s High School, Notre Dame College, and Dhaka College in Bangladesh to Moscow State University in the former Soviet Union and the University of New Hampshire in the USA. I’ve been fortunate to work at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, the University of California, Riverside, and Moreno Valley College within the Riverside Community College District, and to teach at BRAC University in Dhaka as a Fulbright Fellow. This space is where I share my reflections on science, art, and philosophy.
