Meet the Expert:  Dr. Marsha Tufft, engineer Dr. Tufft has degrees in mechanical (BSME-Purdue), aerospace (MSAsE- University of Cincinnati), and materials engineering (Ph.D.- University of Dayton). She worked 30+ years that I worked as an engineer professionally at GE Aviation .She is also an active volunteer with GE volunteers and Girl Scouts of Western Ohio. Dr. Tufft has received awards for science experiments she developed and led with more than 1,000 girls over the years during the Girl Scouts of Western Ohio’s summer camps. You can find her experiments and projects on her website, www.putneydesigns.com. Dr. Tufft’s passion is helping kids become creative problem-solvers and engage with STEM–science, technology, engineering, math. She wrote a fiction book series to help change attitudes about science and math to encourage more kids to consider STEM fields, get comfortable with learning from failure, and bounce back with renewed confidence. Her thoughts are that stories change attitudes.
