Jeremy Davis is the kind of PhD student ever professor dreams of mentoring. He is bright, highly self-motivated, works hard and smiles simultaneously, and is not afraid to do the full range of engineering from conceptual analysis, engineering science modeling and analysis, computation, experiment, and design-build-test. Furthermore, he does most all of these well, which is remarkable. We can look forward to many accomplishments from Jeremy over his career. The Willy Z. Sadeh Graduate Student Award could not bestowed on a more deserving individual and we look forward to many national recognitions of his future accomplishments.
