Ari Perez

Howdy! My name is Ari Perez, and I am originally from Honduras. I grew up mostly there, with a short spell in Rueil-Malmaison on the outskirts of Paris, where from a young age I became interested in engineering, infrastructure, and construction. After finishing my Civil Engineering degree and a short time working for my hometown's engineering department, I then did my graduate work at the University of South Carolina (Go Gamecocks!) where I studied Geotechnical Engineering, with my research centering on the reburial of archaeological sites for conservation purposes. After graduation in 2014, I joined the faculty at Quinnipiac University where I currently teach.

On a personal note, I am a huge Real Madrid (Hala Madrid!) and Taylor Swift (Fearless Stan) fan, and I enjoy spending my down time with my family.
