is a PhD candidate in Cultural Anthropology. Her dissertation research, "Steel Toes and Ponytails: Gender and Belonging in Engineering", investigates the boundaries of membership in engineering in the Capital District of New York. She is honored to be a research assistant on the NSFsponsored study on engineering education reform entitled "The Distributed System of Governance in Engineering Education." In addition to her academic experience, she is a former mechanical engineer with several years of experience in the aviation and construction industries.
Growth of mercuric iodide platelets in horizontal furnaces with the addition of polyethylene powder has been analyzed with a 2 3 full factorial analysis. The factors investigated were the temperature gradient between the zones, the source/hot zone temperature, and the amount of polyethylene powder. The crystallization zone length was chosen as the observable. Normal probability and Lenth's plots were used to analyze the effects. Both plots show that the temperature gradient is an active effect.
is working on a multi-institutional project characterizing governance processes related to change in engineering education, and pursuing other research interests in epistemology and design, among other philosophical topics in engineering education.
