Hello, folks! As part of the LCLS directorate, I work as an Instrument Area Manager for RIX Hutch 2.2 and Laser Safety Systems Engineer. I've been at SLAC for 2 years with a background in electrical engineering and a particular passion community development. I spend my free time eating nice cheeses, obsessing over my dog & picking up way too many hobbies.

Molly Glover
I’m on the Outreach & Events team in Communications, currently working remotely except for a few special projects. I’ve been at SLAC for just over 4 years, and I truly enjoy being part of this complex and brilliant community. Before SLAC, I worked in San Francisco at an event planning company for about 10 years. I grew up in Berkeley, CA, and I love the Bay Area and Northern California.

LCLS
Dimitri Khaghani
I work as a Research Associate at LCLS. My role includes acting as a scientific point of contact for experiments at the Matter in Extreme Conditions (MEC) end-station. I began working at SLAC in 2020. Prior to SLAC, I lived in Germany for 6 years where I completed my PhD and post-doc at the GSI Helmholtz Center for Heavy Ion Research. Alongside my academic endeavors, I enjoy cooking, existing in the beautiful nature around us and passionate debates.

AD Engineering
Jeremy Mock
I am an Accelerator Controls Engineer working at SLAC for about 5 years. My husband and I have been together for 6 years, married for 4. Together as a same-sex couple, we were able to navigate through the family based green card process as he became a permanent resident through our marriage. So many people before us fought for our rights so the system could work for us, and I try to find ways to ensure that it will continue to work for future LGBTQ+ people.

Fundamental Physics Directorate
Sierra Villarreal
I’m a Software Developer working on designing workflows for the Rubin Observatory, with a background in astrophysics and cosmology. I am nonbinary transfemme, demisexual, bisexual, polyamorous, and neurodiverse — a fun mouthful for introductions! Most of my free time is spent being an enormous nerd, bouncing between video games, incredibly queer tabletop roleplaying games, or dressing up in medieval clothing to watch people smack each other in armor.
