About
I have over 20 years of engineering and R&D experience in sensors and MEMS including physical modeling, transduction, design, optimization, fabrication, characterization/test, and algorithm development, as well as 10 years of technical management/executive experience in operations, product development, R&D, business development, marketing and technical sales. I have a track record of success in taking early stage R&D concepts through to full products, and developing and growing businesses based on those products. I hold a PhD in Electrical Engineering from the University of Florida, where I focused on sensor and instrumentation development, leading to 20 years of academic/industry experience in research, modeling, optimization, microfabrication, and testing of scientific instruments that requires in-depth knowledge of multidisciplinary physical systems (mechanical, electrical, acoustic, fluidic, thermal, and optical). I am well versed in MATLAB and LabVIEW, as well as first-principles development of lumped element modeling (LEM) for physical systems of all kinds. As the former CEO of an innovation-driven startup, my most important roles were defining the long-term vision and strategy, and building the teams and the people to make it all happen.

PhD. candidate at Colorado State University working at the Chemical Energy Conversion Laboratory. My research focus is on multidimensional modeling and control of End-Gas Autoignition (EGAI) in Spark Ignited Natural Gas engines. The goal of the research is to achieve Diesel-like efficiencies by using controlled end-gas autoignition. A Cooperative Fuel Research (CFR) engine and a 15-L Cummins engine have been used for this purpose having a mix of experimental, 1D, and 3D modeling work to study the fuel-engine interactions that lead to EGAI.

Hello! I'm Zhengmao Lu, an incoming Tenure Track Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering at EPFL (starting in February 2023). I am looking to recruit one PhD student to work on fundamental thermofluids research and develop technologies for sustainable cooling in our lab. I am interested in gaining deeper understandings of liquid-gas interfacial transport and leveraging the fundamental knowledge to create high performace cooling solutions for electronics, buildings, and perishable goods. I like to combine experimental and modeling approaches to provide more comprehensive answers to research questions. I have a strong interest in converting lab research into commercializable products. I have previously participated in startup business programs such as [The Engine](https://www.engine.xyz/) and [NE I-Corps](https://innovation.mit.edu/resource/mit-i-corps/).

About
I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at Norwich University. My research and teaching interests are in feminist economics, health, public policy, and economic pedagogy. My current research focuses on violence against women and girls, including public space sexual harassment and intimate partner violence. My research emphasizes that such violence not only constrains a person’s capability for life and bodily health but can also result in other significant unfreedoms including deprivation of the capability for economic well-being. Recent publications on these topics have appeared in the journal *Feminist Economics*, the *Handbook of Interpersonal Violence and Abuse Across the Lifespan*, and *The Routledge Handbook of Feminist Economics*.   I earned my M.S. and Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Utah and a B.A. in Economics from the University of Colorado, Boulder. I also hold a Higher Education Teaching Specialist (HETS) designation and am committed to implementing more effective, research-backed practices in her classrooms and encouraging diversity in economics education more broadly. I have published on the necessity of plurality and innovation in economics education, with articles on teaching appearing in *The International Journal of Pluralism and Economics Education*, *The Review of Political Economy,* and the *Journal of Economics Education*. At Norwich University, I teach Health Economics and Policy, Public Finance, Economics of Race and Gender in the 20th Century, Principles of Microeconomics, and The Structure and Operation of the World Economy.
