Trent received his B.S. in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering with a minor in Economics from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2019. As an undergraduate, he worked in Dr. Michael Filler’s lab studying selective surface chemistry techniques to develop area selective patterning methodologies on nanowires. Trent also spent two summers interning for ExxonMobil at their Baytown Technology Engineering Complex. Before attending graduate school, he spent one year developing mathematical models for ExxonMobil’s Supply Chain Optimization group. In the Brushett group, Trent’s research focuses on understanding the nature of SEI formation under flow for convection battery design.
