<\/span><\/p>\n

By Lisa Ybarra<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>David Reynolds was born and raised in Bakersfield, California. He attended Bakersfield College, where he received his a.s. in engineering. Mr. Reynolds then transferred to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and received his b.s. in physics. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>He then joined the Marine Corps and was a logistics officer. After leaving the Marine Corps, Mr. Reynolds went on to further his education at Fresno State. He received his m.s. in physics. David attended U.C. Davis with plans to get a Ph.D., but he came back home after a year to be closer to his family. He went on to work for Scientific Drilling International as a Measure While Drilling Engineer (MWD). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>Mr. Reynolds came to work for Taft College in 2009 as the STEM Outreach Coordinator. A year later he began teaching physical science at TC. He currently teaches physics, astronomy, and chemistry. He has also taught algebra at TC. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>He likes to read science fiction and pop science books; his favorite pop science author is Michio Kaku. His taste in music ranges from Led Zeppelin to the Gypsy Kings. He loves spending time with his baby boy who was born in December. David also enjoys walking his dogs and playing classical guitar. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>I asked professor Reynolds what his goals for the future are and he said he would like to start a local astronomy club, learn General Relativity in his spare time, and eventually publish in that field of work. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
