I am a graduate of the University of Kansas with a bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, I have also received a master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from Washington University in St. Louis. Currently I work in a Materials Testing Laboratory for a large aerospace company.

On Wikipedia
I spend a lot of time editing articles associated with WikiProject Futurama. I occasionally enjoy categorizing uncategorized articles, particularly uncategorized people. I am the original creator of only two articles, Jan Roskam and Barcol hardness test. I shall consider creating another article if I find an area of Wikipedia that is significantly lacking.

I am just coming back from a long wiki-break. While I'm not editing as much as I did in my peak, I am starting to hit up my old haunts again. If there's something you're working on and you think I could be of help then drop me a message on my talk page and I'll be happy to have a look. Apparently while I was out I was also granted reviewer status, I'm sure that will be very exciting if I ever have the opportunity to use that ability.

Achievements

 * Created
 * Jan Roskam - Included in the "Did you know?" section of the main page on September 28, 2007
 * Barcol hardness test - Included in the "Did you know?" section of the main page on August 17, 2008
 * Significant contribution
 * "Space Pilot 3000" The first article I felt like I really pulled from being rather poor to rather good mostly by myself, hopefully it will be the first of many.
 * "Hell Is Other Robots" Most of my work on this article was early on rather than during the actual promotion but I do feel responsible for most of the Production section and the info from the Pinsky book. The real credit goes to User:Cirt who made this what it is today.
 * Futurama I didn't work on this as much as the other two but I feel at least partially responsible for it's current state of being.
