Here is my thesis and peer-reviewed publications. Most of this was published while I was a graduate student (2004-2009). Now, out of grad school, I have been fortunate to be associated with great collaborators and managers that let me publish (as long as I get my other work done). I do not publish nearly as much, but do when I can.
