CV

The format of this curriculum vitae is inspired by the observer effect, which states that that which is being observed alters its state given the presence of an observer, and by the act of being observed. This effect arises because in quantum mechanics, particles can exist in multiple states simultaneously, and the act of measurement causes the system to "collapse" into a single state.

FILTER experience by entering a search term below. Experience will be refined via a subtractive process until reset - i.e., only experience containing the search term will be shown. Alternatively, highlight experience via an additive process >>
