Harish Aryal

Assistant Professor, Engineering

College of Sciences and Humanities, School of Sciences, Mathematics and Education

<b>Academic Credentials</b>

Ph.D.  Idaho State University (2020) - <em>Nuclear Engineering (GPA 3.96)</em>
M.S.    Idaho State University (2016) - <em>Mechanical Engineering (3.96)</em>
M.S.    Idaho State University (2014) - <em>Nuclear Engineering (3.95)</em>
B.S.     Idaho State University (2012) - <em>Nuclear Engineering &amp; Physics Minor [High Honors]           </em>
Fundamental of Engineering (FE) License [Idaho]

<b>Biography</b>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Dr. Aryal’s </span><b>Thermal Hydraulics (TH)/Computation</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> lab involves the study of heat and mass transfer, and fluid mechanics processes that transport energy and mass in nuclear-mechanical systems and provide broad technical expertise to govern system performance and safety. Key sub-research areas include -modes of heat transfer (conduction, convection, radiation), phase change, single and multi-phase fluids, use of gas (HTGR), molten salt (MSR), and liquid metal coolants (LMFBR) in addition to the water in a conventional LWR reactor. The purpose is to establish a correlation between thermal and neutronic properties with dual mechanical and nuclear engineering expertise (dual degrees) to support the existing accident analysis capabilities. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Computational tools include </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">RELAP, CFD, MCNP, Scale, multi-physics, PRA, Mathematica, SAPHIRE, OpenBUGS</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, and Fusion 360. Dr. Aryal’s research focuses primarily on modeling and simulation of various small-scale reactor systems or components of a reactor, radiation shielding, medical imaging, nuclear security, and non-proliferation challenges. His lab will explore the use of radioisotopes in image reconstruction/imaging, and he has previously used Filtered Back Projection (FBP) to support real-time imaging of fuel pins and other structures during transient testing in the TREAT reactor, INL, as a part of the collaborative effort to restart TREAT. Another avenue of Dr. Aryal’s research is to study Radioactivity present in oil and gas. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM) possess a major challenge to public health and occupational concerns. There have not been enough radiological studies and consequently, there is a lack of supportive data. In addition, there is no universal medical surveillance program for low-level doses, and the research done to date has been preliminary in nature. This research helps to quantify, characterize, and formulate stringent regulations to ensure public safety. Any correlation between the occurrence of radionuclides and specific hydrocarbon formations will be beneficial for the local economy.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Currently, his research centers around creating </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">renewable energy-focused engineering projects specifically tailored to the needs of historically underrepresented STEM students (women and minorities including African American, American Indian/Alaska Native, Hispanic, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander at Marymount University. He is open to collaborating with STEM and even with social sciences to the best of his knowledge.</span>

<b>Bio</b>

As an Admission Counselor, I am here to help you learn about our institution and make the college application process less intimidating. In 2017, I was a low-income, first-generation Latina searching for the perfect college to attend and it is now my honor as a Marymount Alumna (2021) to help you become a Marymount Saint! As an undergraduate student, I worked in the athletics department (Rose Bente Lee Center) and in our metropolitan area. I took part in various clubs such as International Affairs Society (IAS), International Club, Latino Student Association, Commuter Activity Board, Sports Intramurals, Office of Ministry, and Spiritual Life as well. One of my favorite things about Marymount other than our tight net community is the way in which class often ties into servicing our community whether it is locally in Arlington or globally in the Caribbean or Central America. If you're interested in becoming a well-rounded individual don’t hesitate in contacting me by phone or via email. Marymount emphasizes intellectual curiosity, serving others, and helping students gain a global perspective.

Earning her previous counseling degrees in Taiwan, Dr. Ho has provided bilingual counseling to adolescents and adults in various settings.

For her doctoral dissertation, she developed a theoretical framework to study factors contributing to counselors' empathy in the counseling process. Additionally, her research team was awarded a research grant for racial disparity from Association for Assessment and Research in Counseling.

Dr. Ho is an active member of the counseling profession. She served as a reader consultant for the CACREP and an editorial assistant for the Journal of College Counseling.

Erik Alda

Assistant Professor of Criminal Justice

College of Sciences and Humanities, Criminal Justice, School of Behavioral and Social Sciences

Before joining Marymount, I received my PhD in Criminology and Public Policy from
the School of Public Affairs at American University. My research interests lay at the intersection of performance measurement of criminal justice institutions and comparative criminology, with a focus on developing countries. One strand of my research explores how criminal justice institutions and, particularly, law enforcement, perform and how efficiently they utilize their resources as well as the factors that affect their performance. In particular, I have conducted comparative research on this topic in various countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, Eastern Europe, and Sub-Saharan Africa. I am also working with governments to design and evaluate the performance of their criminal justice sector to inform policy and program design that can lead to a more efficient use of public resources. Another strand of my research studies focuses on evaluating public policies in developing countries by analyzing large administrative datasets. Research areas include policing, youths, and justice system. In addition to my research interests, I have collaborative research projects in Spain, Mexico, Chile, El Salvador, Honduras, Bulgaria, and the US.

Sociology

I am interested in how the ideas, politics, technological know-how, music, folkways and foodways from one location combines with another to form completely new social forms and contexts never before recognized. I am also passionate about research that explores how societies can create and maintain stable, democratic institutions that foster civic engagement and political participation. Together with my students, I wish to explore these ideas and to learn from their insights and experiences.

<b>Biography</b>

Dr. Lopresti-Goodman joined the Marymount community in the fall of 2009.

In addition to teaching undergraduate psychology classes and working with Honors students on campus, she has led four study abroad programs to primate sanctuaries in Kenya and Spain, where students learned how to conduct naturalistic observations of chimpanzees.

Dr. Lopresti-Goodman also actively engages in research. Currently, her work is aimed at understanding the enduring negative impact that confinement, social isolation, and physical abuse have on the psychological well-being of nonhuman animals rescued from laboratories, including chimpanzees, monkeys, and dogs. She also conducts research on alternatives to the use of animals in psychology education. She has presented her research at academic conferences nationally and internationally, including meetings of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, World Congress on Alternatives and Animal Use in the Life Sciences, the International Primatological Society and American Society of Primatologists, and the National Institute on the Teaching of Psychology. She has published in peer-reviewed journals such as <em>Neuroscience Letters, Behavioral Sciences, Journal of Trauma &amp; Dissociation, Psychology and Education, </em>and the<em> Journal of Animal Ethics, </em>and has been featured in media outlets such as the<em> Washington Post, Nature, NPR, and Science. </em>

Carlo Ninassi

Assistant Professor

<b>Academic Credentials</b><p>BS, The Pennsylvania State University
BS, The University of Maryland System
Masters, University of Maryland System
Doctorate, Colorado Technical University
Post-degree Certification, The Wharton School of Business, University of Pennsylvania
<p><b>Biography</b><p>Carlo serves as an Assistant Professor in the Management and Marketing Department. His areas of expertise include strategic planning and management, entre/intrapreneurship, and business planning. He presents his research at national meetings such as the International Academy of Business and Southwestern Social Sciences Association.  He also publishes in a variety of peer-reviewed journals.<br />
 <br />
As a member of the Academy of Management (AoM) – Strategic Management and Entrepreneurial Divisions, and the International Academy of Business (IAB) Carlo has served as a peer reviewer and in leadership roles including board level positions. <br />
 <br />
Carlo is engaged on campus as well serving on multiple committees, advising and mentoring his students. He is a member of the “Dream Team” for Admissions and has been cited by the Athletics Department as a featured faculty member with impact.<br />
 <p><b>Other Information</b><p><strong>Business Design Charette Methodology (BDCM)</strong> – Carlo’s teaching philosophy in delivering course subject matter is through activity-based learning. By applying his experience as a professor, as a former architect and as a management consultant he developed the BDCM and uses it at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. The BDCM is based on the design studio Charette process used traditionally by architects. The BDCM teaches students how to go through an intense “Design Charette” process for business topics and subject matter (not building architectural design). The BDCM promotes team development and fosters learning by applying acquired business knowledge and skills to a diverse set of business subject matter topics. The learning experience for a student is greatly enhanced.<br />
                 <br />
<strong>Dean’s Review Panel</strong> - While at MU Carlo instituted the Dean’s Review Panel for the SBT Bachelors of Business Administration (BBA) capstone course highlighting business planning. In this required capstone course student teams develop a semester long project (e.g., a business) and related business plan. The teams present their project plans to the Dean’s Review Panel, which includes the SBT Dean along with other selected faculty and invited professional subject matter experts. The Dean’s Review Panel continues to this day and has evolved and matured over the last ten years. Other SBT programs (i.e., MBA program) have adopted this venue with great success. The students are reluctant at the semester’s start but by the end they are elated at the outcome and realize the importance the process serves in preparing them for the real professional working world.<br />
 <br />
<strong>Arlington County – Economic Development Commissioner</strong> – Carlo was appointed in December 2018 to a three-year position as a Commissioner with Arlington Economic Development office and the Economic Development Commission. In this capacity Carlo has worked on a task for developing Four Mile Run (neighborhood) Arts and Industry District, Small Business Enhancement and testified and voted to bring Amazon to Northern Virginia in 2019. Additionally, Carlo has brought visibility to Marymount University in Arlington County through student volunteering, internships and class projects.<br />

College of Business, Innovation, Leadership and Technology, School of Business

<b>Academic Credentials</b>

B.A., University of Pune (India)
M.A., Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics (India)
Ph.D., George Mason University

<b>Bio</b>

Uma Kelekar is an Associate Professor of Healthcare Management at the School of Business of Marymount University. She teaches graduate-level courses in healthcare reimbursement, health economics, data analysis, and epidemiology.

Uma has extensive experience conducting healthcare research in the fields of public health dentistry, health economics and policy. In this research, she uses large survey data and employs innovative empirical methodologies to investigate emerging trends and patterns in healthcare services utilization across multiple vulnerable and underserved segments of the population, and the subsequent use of the EDs for preventive care across the United States. Over the years, her publications have shed light on oral health disparities evident in how people use dental services and its associated burden of care. Additionally, she has examined if dental services provided in the EDs are contributing to the ongoing opioid epidemic.

As of Fall 2021, Uma started working as a senior research fellow at Marymount University’s Center for Optimal Aging and engages in research on various topics specific to older adult mortality, falls and health promotion programs.

Uma has presented her work at various academic and practitioners’ conferences including meetings of the American Public Health Association, American Society of Health Economists, National Oral Health Conference, and Society for Benefit-Cost Analysis. She has published book chapters and articles in journals such as Health Policy and Planning, Preventive Medicine, Preventing Chronic Disease, Health Behavior and Policy Review, The Western Journal of Emergency Medicine, and Journal of American Dental Association (JADA).

She has a PhD in Public Policy from George Mason University. Her undergraduate and masters are in economics from India.

Dr. Mary Lindahl earned a Ph.D. in Psychology and Human Development at the University of <br />
Chicago in 1984, where she received a Woodrow Wilson dissertation fellowship. Following <br />
graduation, she was awarded a two-year postdoctoral fellowship in sociology at Duke University, <br />
after which she joined the faculty as an adjunct and began a private practice. In 1994, she moved <br />
to the Washington area and entered the practice of clinical and forensic psychology.<br />
<br />
Dr. Lindahl has been teaching at Marymount since the fall of 2001, when she was hired to <br />
develop the newly created Forensic Psychology (now Forensic and Legal Psychology) Master’s <br />
degree program; she served as the chair of the department until 2008. Forensic and legal <br />
psychology as a distinct discipline did not exist when she was first trained as a clinician; <br />
therefore, her generation of psychologists mostly learned on the job – usually in the courtroom. <br />
Over the years, she has served as an evaluator or expert witness in over 150 cases. She has been <br />
qualified as an expert in court in clinical psychology, child psychology, post-traumatic stress <br />
disorder, and child trauma in a number of jurisdictions in North Carolina and the Washington area.<br />
<br />
Over the years, Dr. Lindahl has been extensively involved in the field of critical incident stress, <br />
working with victims, as well as with fire, police, and emergency workers after major traumatic <br />
incidents. An important PTSD case, decided by the Supreme Court of Virginia, Fairfax County <br />
Fire and Rescue v. Mottram (2002), grew out of that work. As part of the American Red Cross <br />
Disaster Services Human Resource System, she staffed the Pentagon shelter for the emergency <br />
workers on September 11th and later served on a panel there helping employees with their <br />
reactions to the first anniversary of the attack. Immediately after Hurricane Katrina, she went to <br />
Mississippi for two weeks accompanied by five Marymount forensic students and an alumna to <br />
aid the victims of that disaster.<br />
<br />
Her research interests encompass several areas of the forensic and legal psychology field. She is <br />
the principal investigator of the Marymount/FBI Joint Research Project. With a colleague, she <br />
has developed a therapeutic model for reintegrating families who have been separated by court <br />
actions or allegations of child abuse. She is currently conducting a research project on the <br />
implementation of elementary children’s full participation rights as codified in the U.N. <br />
Convention on the Rights of the Child, using the World Café model. She is also researching <br />
change in student attitudes towards the legal system after working on an actual case of possible <br />
wrongful conviction for murder. Forensic and Legal Psychology students are involved in both of <br />
these current projects. <br />
<br />
Dr. Lindahl loves to travel and has taken student classes to London, Israel/Palestine, Sweden, <br />
and the Czech Republic.<p><b>Publications</b><p>

Sarah Hardesty's recent drawings, paintings, sculptures, and installations deal with time, personal history, excavation of the past, the power of intention and will, collective change, and the force and ability of nature and human in environmental, physical, and psychological shifts. She uses the idea of ‘time-binding’ in much of her work - the notion of preserving memories and recording experience for the use of subsequent generations. Through space, color, line, repetition, and systems of marking time, she explores past, present, and future, adjusts memory, records experience, and alters space and surface.

Hardesty has been awarded residencies at the MacDowell Colony, the Wassaic Project, the Carriage House at Islip Art Museum, Santa Fe Art Institute, Vermont Studio Center, and Hurleyville Makers Lab. Her work has been included in numerous exhibitions including VisArts,&nbsp;Rockville, MD; McLean Project for the&nbsp;Arts, McLean, VA; ISE Cultural Foundation, New York, NY; Davidson Contemporary, New York, NY; MPG Gallery, Boston, MA; Wheaton College, MA; the Tucson Museum of Art and The Museum of Contemporary Art, Tucson, AZ. She has been awarded a Joan Mitchell Foundation grant in conjunction with Santa Fe Art Institute and a Leon Levy award for her residency at the McDowell Colony.&nbsp;

In addition to teaching and being a working artist, her&nbsp;professional experience includes&nbsp;directing profit and non-profit galleries, curating, grant writing, and website design. She has taught drawing, painting, and foundations at Caldwell College, NJ; Wesley College, DE; and the School of Art and the School of Architecture, University of Arizona prior to joining Marymount faculty in 2016.&nbsp;She received her MFA in Painting from the University of Arizona and her BS in Studio Art from Skidmore College.

<li>Belize - Giving Back Program</li>
<li>Belize - Hawksbill Hope Scholars</li>
</ul>
<br />
Dr. Todd Rimkus is the faculty advisor for the Beta Beta Beta Biological Honor Society and the Belize Service Club. He also works closely with local elementary through high schools in an outreach program designed to generate further interest in the sciences. He has a program that allows freshwater turtles to be maintained in classrooms in Virginia, DC, and Maryland whereby the students and teachers contribute to the research by taking the growth measurements of their animals and uploading them to the central database back at Marymount University. In addition to these animals being housed in the schools, Dr. Todd Rimkus often visits the schools with his reptilian ontourage.  Children getting the opportunity to interact with these animals up close might just turn a few into future research scientists. <br />
<br />
<br />
Dr. Todd Rimkus has made a commitment to the small community of Gales Point Belize.  In 2009, Dr. Todd Rimkus along with a group of Marymount Study Abroad Students founded the charity Hawksbill Hope.  Hawksbill Hope accepts donations to further the turtle research in Belize and has expanded to fund projects in the community and even more recently to ensure that children in Gales Point Belize have the opportunity to have their high school tuition covered as they become Hawksbill Hope Scholars.</blockquote>

Eric Bubar

Professor, Engineering

<b>Academic Credentials</b>

B.S., Appalachian State University
M.S., Ph.D., Clemson University

<b>Biography</b>

Dr. Eric Bubar comes to Marymount with extensive training in the field of astronomical stellar spectroscopy. He utilizes national and international telescope facilities to study stars like our own Sun. By breaking starlight into its respective wavelengths, Dr. Bubar can tell what a star is made of, how hot it is, how large it is, and determine its age. He is currently conducting a variety of projects, including studying what types of stars harbor exoplanets and studying small-scale galactic chemical enrichment within a single star-forming region. His work on this enrichment is the most detailed study ever attempted and the best part about this work is that students can easily make substantial contributions!  In addition to astronomy, Dr. Bubar also conducts research in using low-cost desktop 3D printing to create upper-limb assistive devices for individuals in need.  Through collaborations with Enabling the Future, a global network of volunteers, Dr. Bubar and his students have provided hands and arms to people throughout the world.  Projects in this area have included testing 3D printed arms, creating low-cost myoelectric sensing for 3D printed hands, and designing customized full and partial assistive devices using 3D scanning.  To date, Dr. Bubar and his students have provided roughly 60 devices to people in the United States, Costa Rica, Uganda, and Palestine.

Teaching is another passion of Dr. Bubar’s. He developed several planetarium shows while at Clemson University, covering topics such as “Archaeoastronomy” and “Historical Astronomers.” He presents these shows (and more!) by traveling to local schools with the newly operational Myhill Portable Planetarium, a 5 meter, full-digital HD planetarium that immerses participants in the wonders of the cosmos.  He also likes performing demonstrations during lectures and will often be seen carrying bicycle tires and ropes into a classroom to teach students about physics with a hands-on approach. If you see him meandering across campus with his arms full, ask what he’s carrying and perhaps you’ll get an impromptu to peek into the nature of physics and astronomy!
