February 21, 2018 - I decided to pursue a career in Engineering when I was a preteen. While I would like to say I was inspired by the opportunity to find new solutions to society’s toughest challenges, I really was inspired by the need to develop an early warning detection system that signaled my mother was coming and I should pretend like I was cleaning my room. As I’ve developed in my career, that desire to create and innovate has matured and gotten stronger. In college I entered the nuclear power field to integrate my personal concerns for the environment with my engineering career knowing that and nuclear was – and still is – the cleanest and most reliable source of energy.
