Research Bio

Paige is a 5th year grad electrobuff. Paige's research is broadly focused on multi-scale computational modeling of electrochemical systems. Sheworks closely with experimentalists to develop deep insights and rational handles for control and optimization of complex reactions and interfaces. Paigeutilizes a variety of techniques such as Grand-Canonical Density Functional Theory (GC-DFT), microkinetic modeling, and continuum transport modeling. Hercurrent projects include studying nitrate reduction, CO2reduction, and integrated carbon capture and conversion systems. Paige is co-advised by Dr. Charles B. Musgrave.

Paige's favorite thing to do depends on the season! Sheloves to ski, trail run, and climb. Shealso enjoys baking bread, playing chess, learning about the plants and animals that live in the mountain west, and reading (herfavorite author is Octavia Butler)!
