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 in- crease energy saving behaviors.

Community MembersProject OverviewA robust and diverse engineering workforce is essential to national security and economiccompetitiveness, and current rates of higher education enrollment in engineering are notsufficient to support the need. Thus, broadening participation in engineering fromunderrepresented groups is a critical priority. To address this need, this project focuses oneconomically disadvantaged rural students. Given the unique geographic and cultural factors thatimpact rural students’ career choices, it is critical to study choice in context [1, 2]. In ruralcommunities, students career choices are heavily influenced by the people and values of the localcommunity; family, teachers, and friends, in particular, often played a key role
