Presently

I am a researcher with the Structures and Materials Division at NASA Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio. There I study superalloy disk materials for the Aviation Safety and Fundamental Aeronautics programs in the division's Advanced Metallics Branch.

Research Interests

Structure-property relationships in materials. Solid state phase transformations, interfaces and thin film growth. Alloy design for structural applications. Atom probe tomography characterization and data visualization in 3D
