Member, College of Engineering Research Strategy Committee
Awarded National Research Council Resident Research Associateship at the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center
Awarded NASA Graduate Student Research Fellowship
Outstanding Student Paper Award, American Geophysical Union
Refereed papers for leading peer-reviewed journals in space science and proposals for NASA and NSF
Dissertation was first self-consistent calculation of ineterhemispheric photoelectron transport through plasmasphere, from ionospheric sources to scattering into the geomagnetic trap.
With Dr. George Khazanov and others, developed method to solve the Vlasov equation in an arbitrary electric potential structure
With Dr. Janet Kozyra and others, conclusively showed that the initial decay rate of the stormtime ring current is dominated by dayside outflow
With Dr. Khazanov and others, developed first local time dependent global model of relativistic electron transport, for uses such as simulating artificial beam injections and the Van Allen radiation belts
