David’s Inspiration:
“I’ve always wanted to be an engineer primarily because of my father, who was an aerospace engineer. My mom, a school teacher, helped instill in me an appreciation for writing, which is hugely important in this profession. Inspiration nowadays comes from my fabulous research mentors (Lynn Roberts, Michelle Scherer, and Vicki Grassian), my one-of-kind colleagues at the University of Iowa, and my students, who bring passion, energy and fun to my laboratory each day.”.
