Alumni Spotlight

Henry began his Sacramento State career in 2001. With a double major in Physics and Computer Science (with a Mathematics minor to boot), Henry had a very challenging schedule (including one 26 unit semester). Despite the class load, Henry was a very active member of our Society of Physics Students Chapter. Henry spearheaded the club's Sky Lab Project, which took Sac State Physics members to an after school program for formerly homeless children designed to help them catch up with their studies. He was also one of the Sac State McNair Scholars and a member of Sigma Pi Sigma (the Physics Honor Society). He spent a summer as a researcher at NASA's Goddard Flight Center and another at Argonne National Laboratory.

Henry graduated in the Spring of 2005 and headed westward to Berkeley where he is working on his Ph.D. in physics. He is working in the research group of Prof. Alex Zettl and is learning about the intricacies of building nanostructures and nanomachines.
