When I get to be a composer

                                                                I'm gonna write me some music about Daybreak in Alabama

                                                                And I'm gonna put the purtiest songs in it

                                                                Rising out of the ground like a swamp mist

                                                                And falling out of heaven like soft dew.

                                                                                                    -Langston Hughes, "Daybreak in Alabama"

I am nearing the completion of my part-time graduate program in Chemical Engineering at Auburn University.  My interest is in the area of theoretical chemical thermodynamics.

I am currently working on a project with my graduate advisor, Dr. Ram Gupta, working on a modified form of the Peng-Robinson equation of state for supercritical carbon dioxide.
