building a great research team starts at home

A great research team can be built starting with family and friends!

Kristin is now off teaching at West Point, I am a Assistant Professor at the  University of Louisville and a instructor at the University of West Virginia (on-line) and ‘Mom’ is a Professor at Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo, California.

Here’s a peek at what Mom (CLICK on the picture   for more) wrote about us in the APS Observer:

“My husband Roger and I share a strong belief that education for our daughters is extremely important, but we did not anticipate the turn this belief would take.

Since 2009, my daughters and I have presented research that we did as a family at the APS Annual Conventions. I am a Professor of Psychology at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, but our daughters Kristin and Karen persued very different academic interests.

Kristin pursued a major in operations research at the United States Military Academy at West Point, followed by masters degrees in engineering management (University of Missouri, Rolla) and systems engineering (University of Virginia). Karen received a bachelor’s degree in public relations from the University of Florida, a masters in strategic public relations (University of Southern California) and her PhD in communications (University of Tennessee, Knoxville).”

Now, what will we do next year??
