Personal profile
About
My disciplinary work focuses on simulation and controls, particularly as applied to autonomous vehicles. In this capacity, I also advise the Kettering University AutoDrive team. I also conduct engineering education research, with a focus on the interaction between industry and academia, specifically in the context of returning graduate students in engineering - those who work in industry after their bachelor's degree and prior to staring their graduate degree.
