BIO:
Jonah Cullen graduated from Northwest Nazarene University in 2020 with a degree in general engineering with an electrical emphasis and two classes away from completing a computer emphasis as well. During several summers interning at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory working in Nuclear Detection, he became interested in pursuing a future in the crux of Nuclear Policy and Technical Nonproliferation.
Jonah is a progressive rock musician, composer, and multi-instrumentalist known primarily for his work in the band Lux and their 2020 debut album “Lux Aeterna.” With music as an obsessive passion, he is always writing and looking for the next project to put together. In everything he does, people and relationships are most important to him, and he tries to focus on the little things in life while maintaining big aspirations.
RESEARCH:
Jonah is currently researching machine learning methods of anomaly detection as a means of detecting a diversion of nuclear fuel that could be used in the proliferation of nuclear weapons. He joined the LANNS team in August of 2020 and plans to pursue a PhD in Nuclear Engineering.
