associated with new operations, including risks of non-compliance

with RCRA/MACT permits

. Developed clear lines of approach for mentoring for Performance

Based Oversight

Mathematical Modeling and Computational Analysis

. Developed and applied computer programs to the behavior of

nanostructures by combining previously researched parameters and

equations of motion into a cohesive system

. Analyzed results of Monte Carlo simulations and tested them against

previous models and experiments

. Computationally solved and analytically determined solutions to

multiple coupled partial differential equations (PDEs)

. Utilized problem-solving techniques over a wide variety of

technical courses (advanced electromagnetic theory, thermal and

statistical mechanics, quantum theory, solid state and material

physics, etc.)

WORK EXPERIENCE:

Independent Consultant, Alpha Management Solutions, May 2010 -

November 2010

. Analyzed risks to worker and public health and environment for the

UMCDF, and summarized results for use by others

. Independently assessed potential for malfunctions in equipment and

deficiencies in personnel actions drawing on Environmental

Assessments and Permits, Quantitative Risk Assessments, and other

documents

. Assisted in developing and instructing training sessions for

Conduct of Operations (will conduct portions of the training

sessions in the months to come), synthesizing guidance documents

from a variety of sources, including those developed for the

Department of Energy

Graduate Assistant, Physics Department, UMBC, 2005 - 2008

. Instructed students in introductory calculus based physics courses

during academic sessions, including mentoring after classes, and

grading performance

. Taught weekly discussion sections for groups of 20 - 40 students

. Supervised undergraduate student teachers for these discussion

sections

. Served as a substitute lecturer for classes of roughly 150 students

PUBLICATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS:

"Step Dynamics and the Morphological Evolution of Nanostructures"

. Doctoral Thesis, Copyrighted December 2008

. The primary aim of this work was to examine surface diffusion and

step motion on nanomounds and nanowires in order to understand the

morphological, or shape, changes of these structures finite

temperatures.

"Rayleigh Instability in Nanowires"

. Department of Physics, Loyola College of Maryland, November 14,

2008

. Lectured to undergraduates studying mathematics and physical

science on the theory of Rayleigh Instability and employing kinetic

Monte Carlo simulations to aluminum nanowires
