“Dr. Allee has helped me apply my coursework to real-world problems. I appreciate how he offered his time when I needed help and communicated quickly through emails. Dr. Allee also connected me with another student who specializes in the software I was using, and I was able to learn skills that will be useful for other projects and coursework. Having Dr. Allee as mentor not only helped me learn about the importance of using low power devices for use in the field, but has made me interested in taking classes that relate to these topics.”
