I am a recent graduate from Trine University with a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering with minors in Energy Engineering and Mathematics. I'll be a first year PhD student at the University of Michigan starting Fall 2015 studying electric motor modeling/control and power electronics for use in the field of hybrid and fully electric vehicles. In my recent experiences, I've worked on various projects involving power electronics, electric machines, renewable energy, programmable logic controllers, MATLAB scripting, and computer assembly.

My broad ranging interests include electric vehicles, space exploration/colonization, and consumer electronics. I'm also a fan of reading blog posts from leaders and professionals on LinkedIn about their experiences in the workplace and lessons learned throughout the years. I'm a devout follower of Christ and make no claim to any specific denomination, merely the truth found within the Holy Bible. I enjoy philosophical discussion with people who share my beliefs and those that do not, alike. Aside from the technical stuff, I enjoy running, some biking, reading science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and watching TV shows in my downtime.

My specific goals for contributing to Wikiversity lie within the school of Electrical Engineering, and I hope to be able to expand current topics listed to help fill out lacking classes/information.
