Education and Position Held

Doctor of Philosophy, Aeronautical Engineering

Current Duties and Responsibilities

Design, develop and use software for simulating atmospheric entry by spacecraft including the thermal protection material response due to atmospheric heating. My software was used in the design of the Mars Exploration Rover (MER) aeroshell and was referenced in the MER CDR report. My software also played a role in the development of many NASA interplanetary spacecraft, e.g. Stardust, SAGE, Kitty Hawk II, JIMO, etc.


University Teaching Experience

Lectured third year undergraduate fluid mechanics

Lectured third year undergraduate orbital mechanics


Publications

Over twenty publications in my field
