Alex Bien
Accel System Operator I, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am a 2022 graduate with a B.S. in physics from the University of Maryland at College Park, and I currently operate the world's longest and most powerful linear particle accelerator staffed by Stanford University under the direction of the US Department of Energy. Here I interface directly with the machinery, controls, and safety systems for three accelerator facilities: FACET-II where electron-pair beams are shot thru hot plasma for wakefield acceleration research, LCLS where coherent x-rays of very high energy (and inversely low wavelength) probe deep into matter for imaging at atomic scales, and LCLS-II where commissioning is underway to produce a much more powerful 1MHz superconducting beam that can be used to take videos with time resolutions that are also at atomic scale.

Olivier N. Bonin
Digital Media Specialist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioBorn in the French Alps, I did a Master in Electrical and Micro-Electronic Engineering. I was an engineer in the Silicon Valley for 10 years developing semiconductor libraries of components for use on chips by many of the big names in the industry. After the last company I worked with was sold in parts, I left the industry to work on a full feature documentary about Burning Man. The film, Dust & Illusions, focused on a 30-year history that surprisingly nobody ever explored before. That lead me to develop video content for various companies, such as Whole Foods, Samsung, Stanford until I joined WildAid for a year producing videos to help stop the illegal wildlife trade (that potentially led to the covid-19 pandemic). Finally today I am the video and multimedia producer for SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory with the goal of bringing attention to the fundamental research in physics and biology that the Lab focuses on.

Cameron Bravo
Project Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioBorn in Kansas City, Missouri and attended high school in Peculiar (Ray-Pec). Undergraduate studies at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln, the Paul Scherrer Institute, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich). Studied ASIC design after helping characterize the PSI46 pixel chip used in the CMS detector. Graduate education at UCLA searching for Electroweak Sphalerons in proton-proton collisions with the CMS experiment while working on the muon system. Wrote BaryoGEN, a new Monte Carlo generator, to study all possible B+L violating fermion configurations potentially generated via Sphalerons and/or Instantons. Interests include front-end detector electronics, DAQ systems, gas detectors, Si detectors, non-perturbative physics (especially within the Standard Model), High-Multiplicity Electroweak Boson production, and exotic dark matter models. Currently working with the Heavy Photon Search (HPS) experiment on the Silicon Vertex Tracker (SVT) sub-system and searching dark sector models with an A' lighter than the dark matter threshold, SIMPs, and true muonium.
