Ted Moffitt graduated with a B.S. in physics from Western Washington University in 1997.
He entered the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at the Oregon Graduate Institute in 1999, where he received the M.S. in Electrical Engineering in 2000. He works on fiber-based devices to measure optical properties and fiber orientation. More recently he is working on differential pathlength spectroscopic devices. Ted defended his dissertation Compact Fiber-Optic Diffuse Reflection Probes for Medical Diagnosis in 2007.
Ted is now working in thermal processing of semiconductors at Applied Materials in Portland, Oregon.
