I am a tenured Associate Professor in the Department of Engineering Technology at the University of Toledo and received my Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Toledo in 2012. My research interests include CFD algorithm development, numerical simulation of rotorcraft and wind turbines, and flight control optimization for eVTOL aircraft. I teach courses in fluids, thermodynamics, heat transfer, and CAD, and I am an industry-certified FANUC Robotics instructor supporting robotics certification at the University.
