Here's a summarized version for a StackOverflow "About Me" section:

I'm a Professor in the Chemical Engineering Department at Brigham Young University, leading the PRISM group. My educational background includes a B.S. and M.S. from Brigham Young University and a Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin. My expertise lies in process dynamics, control, and optimization, with applications in diverse areas like unmanned aerial systems and energy systems. I have substantial experience in chemicals manufacturing, particularly in automation and modeling. The automation software I developed, APMonitor/GEKKO, is used globally in industries like refineries and chemical plants. As an educator, I teach various courses in computational methods and control optimization, with a strong online presence including a popular YouTube channel with 72,000 subscribers. I've co-authored numerous publications with my work cited over 3200 times. I'm actively involved in professional services, holding various leadership and advisory roles in organizations like the IEEE Control Systems Society, CACHE (Computer Aids for Chemical Engineering) Corporation Trustee, Society of Petroleum Engineers, and the AIChE CAST (Computing and Systems Technology) division.
