Biography

Ryan Camacho joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2017. He received the BS degree in Physics from Brigham Young University in 2003, the MA degree in Physics in 2006, and the PhD degree in Physics in 2008, all from the University of Rochester. From 2008-2010 he was a postdoctoral scholar at Caltech, and from 2010-2017 he worked at Sandia National Laboratories.
