Biography

Adam joined Sandia in 2013 as a senior member of technical staff. He currently works primarily as a developer of Dakota (https://dakota.sandia.gov) and leads the Dakota Mission Integration thrust, which is charged with bridging the gap between upstream R&D and ordinary Dakota users. Adam’s research background and interests are in atomistic modeling and heterogeneous catalysis.

Education

  • B.S., Chemical Engineering, Texas Tech University (2002)
  • Ph.D., Chemical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin (2012)
