Brent’s journey began when he completed his first undergraduate degree in Business Leadership as a non-traditional student at Bellevue University in 2017. Upon entering the finance industry at TD Ameritrade, he swiftly discovered his true passion lay in the realm of problem-solving. His role required him to engage in weekly collaborative problem-solving sessions with colleagues and upper management, where they would dissect complex issues and devise effective solutions. 

This newfound enthusiasm led him to embark on a transformative path in STEM, supported by the encouragement of his family. Embracing this change, he enrolled at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln as a dedicated Electrical Engineering student. During his studies, he uncovered a deep-seated interest in RF and antenna design. 

Presently, Brent is engaged in work with the Applied Electrodynamics Group at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. His focus revolves around wireless neuromodulation and antenna design reflecting his unwavering commitment to solving complex challenges in the realm of technology and engineering. 

Isaac Larson, from O’Fallon Missouri, is pursuing his B.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. He joined the lab in Fall 2023 as an undergraduate research assistant. Isaac is interested in radio and microwave frequency systems and antennas, digital signal processing, communication systems, and hardware design and simulation. Isaac is currently working on RFID-based data collection systems.
