This was work I completed during the summer of 2013 as a SULI intern at the National Renewable Energy Lab. The goal is to use the heat signature from the catalysis of escaping hydrogen to study the development of flaws in the electrolytic membranes of fuel cells.
While working as an intern at the National Renewable Energy Lab (thanks to the DOE’s SULI program, Summer 2012). I developed some ideas on how to excite the thin, conductive materials used to make up the electrodes of PEM fuel cells.
My report led to a winning entry in Marblar.com’s contest seeking important uses for Terrahertz technology sponsored by Oxford Instruments.
An idea I explored while an undergrad at BYU.
Product concept developed while an undergraduate student at BYU.
Developed in an intensive 3-week product design course at the National University of Singapore (Summer 2011), the Flowdometer is a showerhead that alerts you of your water use as you shower.
I like to think that this project was the inspiration for subsequent work by the National University of Singapore and a later call from the Singaporean public works for proposals to develop smart shower-heads to provide real-time feedback of water use.

Posterbot is a robot I built in the right after I graduated from high school (Summer 2007). It draws simple B&W bitmaps onto poster paper using a marker.
