Joanna Hinks has lived much of her life in Wisconsin, and received a B.S.
in Mechanical Engineering from Cedarville University in Ohio in 2006. She
is currently a fifth year Ph.D. student in the Sibley School of Mechanical
and Aerospace Engineering. In 2007 she was awarded a National Science
Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship. Her research focuses on the effects
of the upper atmosphere and ionosphere on satellite orbit determination algorithms.
