Perry is a Ph.D. student in the School of Polymer Science and Engineering at USM studying the synthesis and characterization of conjugated polymers. He first joined the Collier Research Group as an undergraduate chemistry major and Kennesaw State University. Outside of work, he enjoy's spending time with friends/family, playing guitar, hiking, and working on my cars - something he considers a joy and a major headache.
Arlo and Kirby
Arlo (left) and Kirby (right) represent consultants to the group. They are always willing to lend a listening ear for formulating ideas and funding strategies. They work tirelessly at raising the impact of the group's work, especially when fueled on peanut butter lickpads.
