Receiving the 2005 American Indian Science and Engineering Society Professional of the Year Award.

I have been involved in Native American science education for many years. Through Sandia National Laboratories, I worked with three tribal colleges and a liberal arts college that served many Native Americans in Montana. I brought students from these schools to my lab for the summer.

For many years, I did research in heterogeneous catalysis. I organized the first National Laboratories Catalysis Research Symposium. Collaboration with industry led to an interest in technical transfer – both in the U.S. and abroad. For more click here.

Recently, my work at Sandia has been in International Security, working entirely in cooperative programs – programs that rely on international cooperation of scientists and engineers to improve our mutual security. The last two years I have worked with chemists in Asia and the Middle East.
