Glen is the VP of Development at STRA LLC.

Glen has focused his career on leading the development of multiphysics analysis codes and algorithms. He led the Computational Multiphysics Department at Sandia National Laboratories from 2014-2020, which is the home of the ALEGRA, LGR, and FLEXO codes. He was a leader and technical contributor to the Albany finite element code, and helped develop new ALE hydrodynamics capabilities in ALEGRA as well as the GPU-based Lagrangian Grid Reconnection (LGR) code at Sandia. He has also focused on fielding scientific GPU-based products, leading both the development of Mini-Contact as well as the Flux Limited EXtended Ohms-law (FLEXO) pulse power analysis codes. Prior to Sandia, Glen led the Multiphysics Methods Group at the Idaho National Laboratory in developing computational nuclear engineering tools, and was PI of the ASCI meshing effort at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). At LANL, he served as Deputy Group Leader of the Computational Science Methods Group in X-Division. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Idaho, an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Nebraska, a B.S. in Petroleum Engineering from the University of Wyoming, and an A.A.S. in Petroleum Engineering Technology from Casper College.
