Teaching at AU
What year did you start teacing at AU?
2023
How would you describe your classes to someone who has never attended one?
In class I encourage active involvement from students so that they share direct responsibility for their learning. I enjoy weaving hands-on research results and demonstrating how God's Word must be foundational to daily tasks in engineering, and all of life.

Reverse Engineering (ENGR 111), Fluid Mechanics (ENME 310), Engineernig Materials (ENGR 330)
I love that Anderson University encourages pursuit of rigorous academics and integration of faith in Jesus Christ in my relations with students and colleagues. AU allows me to model the love of Christ and raise up a generation of students who appreciate how God has designed the world and reveals himself as our Creator.
I wish students will seek to build a culture of technology transfer where research by scientists is more integrated with engineers.
Speaker at various homeschool conferences;
Senior Fellow and Contributing Writer for The Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation;
Author of Resisting the Green Dragon: Dominion, Not Death, which compares and contrasts Bible Christian stewardship with the worldview and ethics of the environmental movement;
Married to Seung-Hyun and father to Grace, Sophia, and Cameron;
Editor of ‘The Master’s Trumpet’ magazine, published by Grange Press.
I enjoy the enthusiasm of the students and the conscious effort of the University to integrate learning and scholarship with faith in Jesus Christ.
