Author, Editor, Educator, and Scientist

I am a professor of physics at a nationally-ranked liberal arts college. I am also the author, coauthor, or editor of a variety of books, including: -- an advanced textbook on x-ray absorption spectroscopy featuring cartoon characters who comment on the main text; -- a study guide for general physics, in the form of a graphic novel; -- a test-prep book for chemistry; -- a collection of whimsical true stories written by me and my students; -- an artisanal pop-up book promoting a major new scientific facility. I have, over the course of my career, also worked as a medical secretary, an editorial intern on a science fiction magazine, and a freelance tutor. My skills include copy editing, proofreading, editing, and content generation for both technical and general interest documents. I will not accept projects I consider unethical, such as doing homework or writing papers for students. I'm happy to edit student papers or ghostwrite for professionals, however.

Absolute what I was looking for! Technical but easily understood. Professor Calvin can perform the more intricate tasks and has the knowledge to deliver! Thanks again, I will be hiring the Professor again!

We posted our requirements for a user's manual for a technical product that we offer. There were quite a few candidates that could have completed the job. Professor Calvin responded with an absolutely assuring comment that caught our attention. After reviewing his background and a little chat we were convinced we had chosen the very best. The manual is much better than we were hoping. The technical aspect of the product is explained in a way that most everyone can understand, and that is no easy task. The communication was solid, the project was easily budgeted, and we are thrilled to have Professor Calvin on our team. We will be hiring the Professor again with any scientific/technical writing that we need. He's that good!

I asked him to revise my research paper, which is around 3000 words. In addition to correcting basic grammatical errors and word choices, he actually pointed out critical mistakes on my paper. His revision helped me to improve my paper a lot, and I would like to highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a person to revise a scientific academic paper. I actually really enjoyed working with him. Thank you very much.

What Do We Care What Other People Think?

Amazon Digital Services
Inspired by the autobiographical tales of Richard Feynman, this is a collection of true (or true-ish) stories written by first-year students at Sarah Lawrence College. Encouraged by the example of the famous physicist to write fearlessly, employing self-confidence or self-deprecation as each situation requires, the students' writings demonstrate that you do not need to be famous to be interesting, and do not need to have a Nobel Prize to have important insights about the world.

XAFS for Everyone

CRC Press
XAFS for Everyone provides a practical, thorough guide to x-ray absorption fine-structure (XAFS) spectroscopy for both novices and seasoned practitioners from a range of disciplines. The text is enhanced with more than 200 figures as well as cartoon characters who offer informative commentary on the different approaches used in XAFS spectroscopy.

We Can Do It! A Problem Solving Graphic Novel Guide for General Physics

CreateSpace
We Can Do It! is a problem-solving guide, in the form of a graphic novel, aimed at students in college-level general physics courses. Instead of just providing brief answers to sample questions or discussions of physics concepts without showing how to apply them to difficult problems, We Can Do It! stresses how to approach problems, what to do if you get stuck, and techniques that can be applied broadly.
