About Me Publications

I am currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in the Department of Civil Engineering. I have a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering (2010) from Lafayette College in Easton, PA, and an MS (2012) and PhD (2016) in structural engineering from the University of California, San Diego. My research focuses on understanding and predicting the response of freestanding structures to dynamic loads, particularly earthquakes.
