Main graduate project assistant on Spokane Tribe bioenergy production project. I am researching an assessment of the Viability of Bioenergy Production on Tribal Lands in the Northwestern United States. I am analyzing biomass resources and energy cost analysis for the Spokane Tribe bioenergy production project. I worked with an engineering consulting firm with their feasibility study and mechanical design boiler system review implementation phase plan. I am assisting with preliminary research for tribal energy policy development and regulations that can be development.
