transformation in the field” (Atman, Turns, & Yasuhara, 2017). As individuals wholive in relationship with others, we find ourselves to be natural storytellers. As Cron (2012)described, “story evolved as a way to explore our own minds and the minds of others, as a sort ofdress rehearsal for the future” (p. 9). With this growing community practice of storytelling(Adams et. al, 2007), we seek to articulate our own pathway story into the engineering educationresearch enterprise, so we may engage others in our work, inspire future doctoral students, andprepare ourselves for future research and teaching practice.We adopted a theoretical and action-oriented approach to build our understanding of “our story”and to use inquiry sessions as an outlet for

the program, he had aresearch question in mind. Brandon proposed measuring road roughness from a mechanical,rather than a civil engineering perspective. He claimed civil engineers know all about the roadand nothing about signal processing. The current standard of measuring road roughness entailedmeasurements made at constant speed under ideal conditions. This approach did not accuratelyrepresent normal driving conditions. Brandon considered multiple factors and conditions in hisapproach, arising from his past project experience with the research institute.Interpreting the Case through the CoCPBrandon amassed substantial domain-relevant skills across domains over his extensive career.He was confident in his testing and design skills, his
