   * **X-ray instrumentation and Team management** : I play a lead role in managing the //FOXSI//-3 detector team at the University of Minnesota. Planning and executing calibration experiments of focal plane X-ray detectors. Participated in the testing and calibration of //FOXSI// X-ray optics at Stray light facility, Marshall space flight center and contributed to the analysis of optics calibration data. Demonstrated an improved way of calibrating //FOXSI// detectors using thin foil X-ray fluorescence.   * **X-ray instrumentation and Team management** : I play a lead role in managing the //FOXSI//-3 detector team at the University of Minnesota.
