Biography
Jack Galloway is a second year graduate student finishing his Masters degree in nuclear engineering this December and starting his Ph. D. work the following January, also in nuclear engineering. This year is his first year working with project STEP and has been assigned to Western Hills Design and Technology School, where he is excited to be working. Some of Jack's main interests are nuclear engineering (as expected), education, activities at his local church and ultimate frisbee. Jack hopes that through his work with the STEP program he can influence students lives to have a greater interest and excitement in maths, sciences and technology hopefully leading to some students going on to college in engineering programs (it's ok if it's not nuclear too). Most of the research that Jack is involved with relates to the handling of nuclear waste and trying to find other options for dealing with the most radioactive aspects of nuclear waste other than loading it into a mountain. Other than working on his research and working with project STEP, Jack is involved with a local ultimate frisbee team in the area where the team travels to various cities to play tournaments. In addition Jack enjoys volunteering at his church in whatever fashion is needed at the time.
