My main interest is in teaching astronomy.  It is the fountainhead of curiosity for students and blends in nicely with physics, chemistry, geology and evolutionary biology. I presently teach IB HL chemistry and physics/astronomy at the Leysin American School, a private boarding school in Switzerland.  In my free time I love reading popular science in various fields. At the moment I am fascinated with the quickly developing field of evolutionary psychology and behavioral genetics.  If the Leysin sky is dark and clear you will find me on a balcony with friends, somewhere in Leysin, drinking wine, taking in the view of the Alps and talking about the Universe.
