Ohio State University in Multicultural and Equity Studies in Education where she also earned an MA in Quantitative Research, Evaluation and Measurement. Dr. Patterson’s work in the educational field began as an elementary level inclusive special educator. She is committed to preparing educators who take up a critical lens to working with children and best serving their needs while seeking ways to deconstruct inequities woven into the US’s existing public school system and structure. To this end, Dr. Patterson serves as a co-coordinator for the newly (2020) established Social Justice in Education minor available to students across the University. Broadly, Dr. Patterson’s research interests consider intersections

parts of engineering practice. In describing the foundation of the practice, Koen [19,p. 10] defines the engineering method as, “the strategy for causing the best change in a poorlyunderstood or uncertain situation within the available resources.” One could succinctly use thewords optimization or innovation in place of the Koen definition. Furthermore, change thecontext or application and this portrayal of the engineering method is equally meaningful to thepractice of leadership! In a nutshell, we have identified solid and robust common groundbetween engineering and leadership. To follow this theme in more detail, let us consider the Lucas and Hanson [20] list of sixelements that they call engineering habits of mind. In other words, the

Each year, threeprojects were selected to move forward with others likely to be implemented.The team with the “winning” pitch was able to convince the judges that their solution was notonly the best tripe-bottom-line return on investment, but the one most grounded and workable.Winning teams engaged stakeholders for feedback regarding implementing their project,performed a detailed cost analysis based on comparable implementation at similar universities,and documented a significant ROI in each area

As a Mechanical Engineer, she worked on facility design projects involving mechanical systems that included heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and energy conservation systems, as well as R&D of air conditioning equipment for Navy ships. Additional research interests have included the investigation of relationships among components of the indoor environment, occupants, and energy usage. Specifically, the effects of the indoor environment on occupant health and well-being and in parallel, how socially-mediated energy-saving strategies can increase awareness of energy use and/or
