My portfolio of courses focuses on the science of energy conversion and its application in mechanical and electrical power systems.  I teach the thermal fluids series in the Mechanical Engineering major, and more specialized courses in heating and air conditioning (HVAC), electric power generation, and energy transition.  Most of my courses incorporate ethical, economic, and political contexts that shape the way we think about and use energy at local, national, and societal levels.

As a Professional Engineer, I am committed to preparing the next generation of Professional Engineers who will pursue their practice always conscious of their responsibilities as both professionals and citizens.  Ethics and civic engagement figure prominently in my teaching, especially in Citizen Engineer, which is a required course in our Mechanical Engineering curriculum.
