About Me

I am an engineer, researcher, and inventor largely dedicating my career to the advancement of sustainable aviation. I've most recently served as the Glenn Center Integration Lead for the Convergent Aeronautics Solutions project at NASA. Over 15 years of research experience has allowed me to develop multidisciplinary knowledge working with leading universities and technical experts. I’ve also spent several years working in management, where I’m responsible for jump-starting new research endeavors, which has connected me to engineers across the entire agency and allowed me to further refine essential operational experience and communication skills.
