Biography

I earned a BS in electrical engineering technology from the Milwaukee School of Engineering and an MS in electrical engineering from Marquette University. While pursuing these degrees, I worked as a research engineer in the MCW Department of Biophysics. I then relocated to Germany, where I conducted my doctoral dissertation research at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion and defended my dissertation at the Technical University of Dortmund. I received a Dr. rer. nat. (PhD equivalent) in physics in January 2020. In late 2020, I returned to the MCW Department of Biophysics as an assistant professor.
