I had the honor of working in a group with Tyler at Texas Tech University on a cyber security research project. Tyler was a proactive worker, an easy person to work with, and an invaluable resource about the project due to his prior knowledge of and experience with RapidSE and KillerBee. Tyler's work will without a doubt help future progress in intrusion detection and cyber security.

      As a graduate research assistant under Dr. Stephen Bayne I developed a synchrophasor network to be used a fundamental research network for TTU. This network extends across the state of Texas. In addition I performed research on the topics of smart solid state transformers, microgrids and advanced power system controls.

    • Graduate Teaching Assistant

      Facilitate the administrative duties of 6 sections of the department of electrical and computer engineering's general electrical engineering course for non-majors. Total student count per semester of 350. Responsibilities include setting test dates, proctoring exams, upkeep of blackboard and online homework systems. In addition to these tasks, I managed a small group of undergraduate students. The undergraduate students help with grading assignments, posting grades online, tutoring, and general day to day upkeep for the course.

      Exploiting security vulnerabilities in ZigBee networks. Research regarding Cyber Security specifically in Smart Grid Home Area Networks.

    • Undergraduate research assistant
      • Jan 2012 - May 2012

      Real Time Data Simulator (RTDS) and RSCAD work related to Smart Grid. Primary project consisted of two parts, the first was to understand and be able to operate all equipment in lab. Lab equipment includes SEl-421 line distance relays, GE D90, GE D60, SEL PDCs, and full synchrophasor networks. The second portion of the project was to use the RTDS system to interface with physical control equipment (such as the SEL-421 line distance relay) to instill a proof of concept for hardware in the loop testing of simulated grid environments. Data obtained and work completed was used for further investigation of smart grid applications.
