services

I contribute to the materials science community through conference leadership, editorial activities, peer review, technical committees, and academic service. My activities have increasingly focused on developing technical communities around materials processing, defect engineering, magnesium alloys, and data-driven materials design.

🎤 Conference Leadership & Organization

• Lead Organizer, AI-Enabled Materials Processing: Integrating Accelerated Experimental Workflows and Processing-Aware Machine Learning, TMS Annual Meeting 2027
  Leading symposium development with collaborators from academia and national laboratories to establish a cross-disciplinary forum connecting experimental materials processing with AI and machine learning.

• Co-Organizer & Session Chair, Vacancy Engineering in Metals & Alloys, TMS Annual Meeting 2026
  Co-developed the symposium and helped build cross-committee support connecting vacancy engineering with processing, phase transformations, structural materials, and ICME.
