Research Profile

Kettering University is a unique educational institution. The close relationships I've developed over the years with my students and my colleagues are my favorite thing about Kettering.
 

I am an outdoor enthusiast who enjoys many high-energy activities, such as hiking, alpine mountaineering, skiing, kayaking, and sailing, and a few lower-energy activities, like fishing and dog walking!
