- Post-Graduation Activities and Current Status -

Before graduating Liam was dipping his toe in the water in the finance world, while still participating as a student scientist with the systems engineering groups at NIWC Atlantic. After graduating, Liam actually returned to CofC to do an MBA. Then, he went back to the science world -- when he last sent me an update (April 2026) he was just about to wrap up his first year in the University of Alabama in Huntsville's Space Science program. At the time, he told me he was preparing for his comprehensive exam.

In the 2026 update Liam mentioned that he has joined a really great research group that he plans to stick with as he pursues his doctoral degree; they work in gravitational waves.
