Oxford, Oh

I am responsible for holding office hours, answering students' questions, and grading homework and quizzes.

I study modern thermodynamic property modeling through computer simulations, such as Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics. In addition, I write my own computer simulation code in Fortran 90. This semester, I am further developing an existing software package, Cassandra, to adapt it to more complicated systems, such as pharmaceutical compounds.

Centerville, Oh

Summer retail job.

I studied the treatment of brewery wastewater using a fixed film bio-reactor. I characterized the input and output of the reactor while performing Total Organic Carbon analysis, Ion Chromatography, Gas Chromatography, and solids analysis.

Pullman, Wa

Our chemical engineering laboratory collaborated with an organic chemistry laboratory to study prostate cancer cell drugs and treatments. On the engineering side, we focused on cancer cell detection and drug delivery.
