Graduated with a degree in chemistry and religious studies from Purdue University in 2008. Earned a MA in bioethics at Case Western Reserve University in 2009 and will be beginning a PhD in the same, also at CWRU, in the Fall of this year. My involvement with the CETMONS project is of interest to me because I am a USAF veteran and find the mixture of science, technology and ethics very compelling and indeed, a necessary area of study as the future unfolds.
