One Student’s Journey to an ACI Foundation Fellowship

Sherryen Mutokais is the 2023-2024 recipient of the ACI Foundation Concrete Materials Fellowship. She is pursuing her PhD at the University of Notre Dame, working in the Kinetic Structures Laboratory under the direction of ACI member Ashley Thrall where her research looks at accelerated fabrication of civil infrastructure in which steel and concrete are the primary materials. She is investigating various approaches to be used in reinforcing three-dimensional-printed concrete walls by conducting full-scale experiments along with developing numerical models of the walls.
