Nathan_Vickey

My name is Nathan and I am a Masters student in my second year at the University of Maryland, College Park studying mechanical engineering.  I was born and raised in Erie, PA.  For my undergraduate studies, I attended the University of Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh, PA where I also studied mechanical engineering.  When I am not engineering, I enjoy running, playing the piano, and following the stock market. 

I discovered this site by reccomendation of my teacher Dr. Teng Li who is teaching a new course at the University of Maryland entitled Flexible Macroelectronics.  I enrolled in the course because previously I have only studied primarily classical mechanics and I wanted to learn about the application of mechanics to new emerging technologies.  I really find it fascinating to learn about the problems being solved to enable the realization of technologies we will surely see in the future.
