While pursuing my Ph.D., the partnership between my Lockheed Martin supervisors and the UCF mathematics faculty couldn\u2019t have gone better and I was able to finish my Ph.D. efforts in 2003.\u00a0 Lockheed is very supportive of their employees pursuing advanced degrees.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/em>\u00a0<em>These partnerships meant that my career work was directly supported by my graduate studies at UCF.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your best UCF memory?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-17734\" src=\"https:\/\/sciences.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/29\/2016\/06\/IMG_0885-300x210.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_0885\" width=\"300\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sciences.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/29\/2016\/06\/IMG_0885-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sciences.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/29\/2016\/06\/IMG_0885-299x209.jpg 299w, https:\/\/sciences.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/29\/2016\/06\/IMG_0885.jpg 604w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Wow!\u00a0UCF has been an integral part of my entire adult life so there are so many memories.\u00a0 My wife and I graduated together with our bachelor\u2019s degrees in 1988.\u00a0 My graduations for my master\u2019s and doctoral degrees certainly stand out. Many of my family from New England made the trip to Florida to attend and celebrate my PhD degree with me.\u00a0<\/em><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>My daughter graduated UCF recently and has just begun her career. My son has also attended UCF and my wife and I have gone to watch him perform with the <\/em><em>Crescendudes at the free speech lawn quite often. <\/em><em>Seeing the growth of the campus since I first got there in 1981 has been fun; everything east of the library was woods back then.<\/em>\u00a0<em>I recall attending a UCF homecoming concert with my wife in the 80s.\u00a0Back then the homecoming concerts were held in the citrus bowl; we lost the football game, but got to hear the beach boys give a great concert.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your favorite thing about your job?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>My career work for the Navy and currently at Lockheed Martin has been research-based work. Thus, I\u2019m really an academic at heart.\u00a0\u00a0During my years at Lockheed Martin there has consistently been very interesting research topics to address.\u00a0 Exploring new ideas and seeing them come to a conclusion is rewarding.\u00a0 The interplay between my regular job functions and the academic community is what I enjoy most.\u00a0I have gotten to collaborate with some of the leaders in academia on research projects.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your most memorable experience on the job?<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>I have to say that my most memorable activities on the job involve travel. I enjoy going to new places and seeing different parts of the world.\u00a0During my time as a civilian researcher for the Navy, I was asked to help support a project demonstration in Newfoundland for 2 months. The time away from family was hard, but it was certainly memorable.\u00a0With Lockheed Martin, I have been to several technical conferences (as a presenter and sometimes an event organizers). The most interesting venue thus far was in Zurich Switzerland for the 2007 ICIAM conference.\u00a0This time I brought my wife and we were able to see many of the sights while attending the conference.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What piece of advice would you give to current students as well as UCF alumni?<\/strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-17735\" src=\"https:\/\/sciences.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/29\/2016\/06\/IMG_0886.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_0886\" width=\"192\" height=\"288\" \/>Never give up on your goals and objectives.\u00a0I started my academic career in 1981 and I wasn\u2019t finished until 2003.
