President: Joe Keebler
Joseph R. Keebler is a Graduate Research Assistant for Team Performance Laboratory. His interests include Human Robot Interaction, Training, Perception and Cognition, Neuroergonomics, and Research Methods and Design. His main research at Team Performance Laboratory investigates how teams interact with multiple robotic assets in a 1:35 scale simulation. Joe also collaborates frequently with ACTIVE lab on object recognition studies, with a focus on cognitive explanations for misidentification. Joe hopes to help the UCF student chapter achieve gold recognition status with the national society this year, and to bring social and professional activity of the chapter to an all time high.
Public Affairs / Webmaster: Scott Ososky
Scott is a doctoral student in the Modeling and Simulation program at UCF. Scott’s background includes a B.S. in Management Information Systems and a M.S. in Modeling and Simulation, also from UCF. He currently works in the Team Performance Laboratory under the supervision of Dr. Florian Jentsch. Scott’s research interests include the design and usability of interactive simulations for entertainment. In his spare time, Scott enjoys going to concerts, playing video games, traveling, and playing synthesizers in the band, History.

Secretary: Javier Rivera
Javier is a master’s student in the Modeling and Simulation program at UCF, and also plans to pursue a Ph.D in the program. He is a graduate research assistant in the Team Performance Laboratory under Dr. Jentsch investigating how to improve x-ray baggage screeners’ performance at detecting threat items. His areas of interest include the use of simulation in training, perception, and cognition. His hobbies include playing basketball (Go Magic!), baseball, reading, and watching movies.
Social Chair: Brittany Sellers
Brittany is a doctoral student in the Applied Experimental and Human Factors program. She is also a graduate research assistant at the Team Performance Laboratory, where she is currently working on research involving perceptual processes and training in x-ray screening tasks. Before coming to UCF, she received her B.A. in Psychology from Flagler College. In her free time, Brittany enjoys doing community service, yoga, gardening, traveling and anything involving the ocean.
