I have been a US Navy submarine officer for more than 30 years, commandng three nuclear submarines and a submarine Group. I spent over seven years "under the sea" and mastered skills as diverse as underwater acoustics, submerged navigation, nuclear engineering and teambuilding/leadership. My educational background is in physics, oceanography and electrical engineering, but I am currently working on a Ph.D in Philosophy. As I transition from active duty to a civilian faculty position at the Naval War College in Newport RI, I am interested in incorporating an understanding of complexity into militray planning and decision-making processes, which are at present almost entirely linear!
I am a native of northern New Mexico and like hiking, biking, skiing and competing in triathlons.
