I am a **HPC Application Specialist** working with the `Holland Computing Center` and a Research Computing Facilitator at the [OSG](https://osg-htc.org/). Though my official position is through the `Holland Computing Center`, as part of my job I also work as a postdoc with [Dr. Joseph Turner](https://engineering.unl.edu/mme/joseph-turner/) at the MME dept. <br />
I am a **HPC Applications Specialist** working with the `Holland Computing Center` and a Research Computing Facilitator at the [OSG](https://osg-htc.org/). Specifically I help and teach researchers on using the resources of [OSPool](https://osg-htc.org/services/open_science_pool.html). My educational background is in mechanical engineering and I obtained my PhD degree with a focus on ultrasonic NDE (Non-Destructive Evaluation) of materials. I worked with [Dr. Joseph Turner](https://engineering.unl.edu/mme/joseph-turner/) at the MME dept. My dissertation was focused on characterizing two-phase polycristalline materials using ultrasonic responses from synthetic microstructures. My research work was computationally on the heavier side and that introduced me to the world of High Performance and High Throughput Computing. <br />

Using my research background on Ultrasonic NDE and my expertise in the computing world, I am aiming towards solving the computationally challenging problems in my research domain. I am specifically interested in the distributed computing which is not used that much in engineering and has a lot of potential to make an impact towards increasing our knowledge. I also enjoy teaching classes and offer courses at UNL. I enjoy working with challenging problems, coding, learning new technologies. I aim to share my findings on my website and in my [GitHub](https://github.com/showmic09). I am also an amateur photographer. I enjoy traveling and phtographing wildlife and landscapes. <br />

I am learning new things through my research and work with distributed high throughput computing. I am planning to share the methods and knowledge in different posts through my website.

I started using git and GitHub mostly after I started working with [OSG](https://osg-htc.org/) and I realized that I should have started using it way before. My aim for this post is to let
researchers know that even if you are not developing and maintaing a software and you are a `one-man-army`, you need to be familiar with git and GitHub.
# What is git and GitHub
- `git` is a version control software and `GitHub`
- `git` is a version control software
- `GitHub` is a platform for hosting and collaborating on code and software projects.
