Experience

  • University of New Mexico

    Visiting Research Associate Professor

    While I was a visiting research professor at the University of New Mexico I conducted research on aerosol assisted vapor synthesis (AAVS) of metal nitride ceramics. This work included the synthesis and characterization (IR, XRD, Density, Surface Area) of the materials.

  • University of New Mexico

    Visiting Research Associate Professor

    Conduct research on ceramic metal nitrides. I was responsible: for the synthesis of boron nitride (BN), galium nitride (GaN) and aluminum nitride (AlN); identification of the ceramics by XRD, SEM, and FTIR and writing reports to the research sponsors.

  • Photoshoppe in Lubbock

    employee

    Sales, maintaining inventory and stocking shelves.

  • U.C.L.A.

    Post-doctorial associate

    - Synthesis and characterization of titanium carbide precursors
    - Directed technician in the synthesis of boron containing precursors for synthesis of boron nitride

  • Valdosta State University

    Professor

    prepare lectures, instruct students in introductory, general, and inorganic chemistry; - conduct research in aminophosphane chemistry and ceramic metal nitride synthesis
    - direct undergraduate research projects in synthetic inorganic chemistry
    - serve on departmental, college and state wide committees
