My Services
Training
So you just bought a new telescope and need some help getting started. Or, you are comfortable with your system but want to get the most out of it. I offer customizable training sessions to help you get the most out of your equipment.
System Installation
I can install your new telescope system anywhere in the world. From anchoring the pier to the concrete to taking real images, I can do it all.
System Design
There are so many options out there. I can help design an astronomical system to meet your needs.
On-Site Maintenance
Why travel all the way to your telescope to diagnose and fix that odd bug? Why spend all the time to perform routine maintenance on your system? I can fix any issue and maintain your system anywhere in the world.
Telescope Control System Retrofit
Have an aging telescope mount that needs some new life? I can retrofit in a new control system to revive your mount.
Remote Troubleshooting / Management
Need help figuring out an issue? Need someone to manage your autonomous observatory? I can be there for you when you need it.
Small Telescope Repair / Servicing
If you have a small telescope that is in dire shape or just needs a tune up I am happy to help get your telescope back in good working order. I have worked on all sorts of telescopes from Questars, to home made dobsonians, Celestrons, to antique brass spotting scopes.
Outreach / Star Parties
With a degree in astrophysics and a history of hosting astronomy nights, I can host a star party to add entertainment and education to your next event. I am also available as a guest speaker, on astronomy / astrophysics as well as on my experiences and expeditions with NASA and others.
