Abstract: 

The discovery of a Higgs boson at the LHC marks both the culmination of a decades-long quest for the final piece of the Standard Model and the dawn of a new era in the search for more fundamental physics. I'll explore the ways in which the Higgs provides a powerful tool in the hunt for physics beyond the Standard Model through its production, propagation, and decay.
