Tyler recently finished both his B.S. in May of 2019 and the 4+1 M.S. program at Syracuse in May of 2020. Tyler worked under Dr. Glauser from 2017 to 2020 on both the UAS and Jet Noise Projects. Aside from his research,
Tyler focused on Entrepreneurship during his undergrad with his minor: Information Technology Design and Startups.
He has pursued three different startup projects and competed in virtually every startup and business plan competition on the Syracuse University campus. In 2019, Tyler competed at the New York State Business Plan
Competition in Albany, NY with his project related to drone noise dampening. Tyler also found heavy interests in Computer Aided Drafting and Design (CADD) and strucural engineering during his undergraduate coursework. Outside of
school, Tyler enjoys 3D printing, playing chess, cryptocurrencies, and playing intramural broomball.
Research Assistant: Summer 2017 - Spring 2020
As both a graduate and undergraduate research assistant, Tyler has worked on both the jet noise and unmanned systems projects. As an undergrad he assisted with improving various aspects Dr. Glauser's MAE 315 Lab course while helping design a 12-hole pressure probe for a meteorological drone package. Currently in his graduate program, Tyler is helping design UAS experiments to test the validity of a new non-linear control
algorithm as well as explore the flow field created by drone swarms. Tyler is also looking into Machine Learning applications to the jet noise project while assisting with PIV measurements.
Teaching Assistant: Spring 2020
Served a Teaching Assistant role for AEE 342 Aerodynamics under Prof. John Dannenhoffer III. This included holding office hours weekly while designing and running a lab for students to explore basic converging-diverging duct flow phenomena.
Teaching Assistant: Fall 2019 - Spring 2020
Served as a Teaching assistant for both an electro-magnetics physics class as well as a kinematics lab course and interacted with approximately 200 students. Held weekly office hours to assist students with a variety of physics classes and topics. Hosted four recitations weekly to assist and teach students practice problems to accompany a main lecture on a variety of electricity and magnetism topics and held four lab courses weekly to show examples of kinematics in the real world. Assisted with grading exams, homework, and quizzes, along with compiling quiz and homework solutions.
Teaching Assistant: Spring 2019
Assisted in teaching approximately 30 students basic and advance methods within the SolidWorks software package. Taught students one on one in a hands-on class on a variety of modeling methods and manufacturing simulations. Helped students prepare for the SolidWorks Student Associate and Professional certification exams.
Summer Intern: Summer 2017
Participated in the first ever Invent@SU Program, a quick six week idea to product development program focused around "idea, pitch, prototype." Took second place in the final pitch competition for development of a highway powered wind turbine.
