Ph.D. candidate working the in the Computational Reactor and Medical Physics (CRMP) Laboratory. Dissertation work focuses on the development of a novel burnup module to couple with the coarse mesh radiation transport method for efficient lattice depletion calculations.

Oak Ridge, Tn

- Working under Dr. Ian Gauld and Dr. Steve Skutnik- Documentation and implementation of new ORIGEN API for depletion analysis- Integration of ORIGEN API with AMP Fuel Performance Code

Oak Ridge, Tn

- Part of Scale testing team under Brad Rearden. - I created system tests (Scale inputs) to provide a full regression suite for Scale. - I also created unit tests in C++ and Fortran to test individual functions within Scale.

- Chosen to receive a stipend to conduct research and publish findings in the Journal of Undergraduate Research.-Work involved investigating loss of excess reactivity in the University of Florida Training Reactor (UFTR) using MCNP

- Assisting in the licensing of the first fully digital control system for a nuclear training reactor in the United States.- Analyzing processes and interaction data for the UFTR- Working with Dr. Ce Yi to update the Safety Analysis Report of the UF Training Reactor following its transition from high-enriched uranium to low-enriched uranium.

- Employed by the College of Engineering to mentor incoming freshman. - Duties included daily interaction with group of 10 freshman students during Summer B, tutoring in calculus and chemistry courses, completing weekly logs on students during Fall and Spring Semesters, and organizing social events and group meetings with eFTP students.
