I started co-oping for NASA at the John F. Kennedy Space Center in January 1993, while attending the Georgia Institute of Technology. I received a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering from Georgia Tech in June 1996. In October 1996, I moved from NASA in Florida to NASA in Cleveland, Ohio, where I started working full-time at the Glenn Research Center (Formally known as the Lewis Research Center). I finished a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering at Case Western Reserve University, August 2001.
