I'm an associate professor at the United States Military Academy in the Department of Systems Engineering. I've taught numerous classes covering combat modeling, decision analysis, system design, vehicle dynamics, and engines. My research interests include combat simulation, model-based systems engineering, robotics, and engine knock. Previously, I was a mechanical engineer at the Charles Stark Draper Laboratory in the Vehicles and Robotics Group. I hold a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from MIT, an MS in Engineering Sciences from Oxford, and a BS in Aeronautics from Caltech. I'm also a combat veteran and a major in the U.S. Army Reserve.
