Jeff is a postdoctoral research associate in the Materials for Advanced Manufacturing group, within the Materials Science and Technology Division. His primary research interests are physical metallurgy for structural and functional alloys, and characterization across multiple length scales. He specializes in using mechanical testing, diffraction, and microscopy to explain structure-property-processing relationships within metal alloy systems.
