Research Statement:

My research interest is in software development, game development, and computer simulation. I am interested in creating games and other software tools for education, as well as for entertainment and artistic purposes.

Research Impact:

An electric utility is a complex type of company that just about everyone relies upon. Even for engineers, there is a lot of economic, environmental, and policy factors that make utilities difficult to understand. We are building a video game that combines a realistic simulation, competitive gameplay, and education in order to increase understanding of this topic.
