"Professor was great. The course was MUCH more interesting than I thought it was going to be. Professor Kraude made the class interesting."
"Richard is a great professor with a passion for teaching."
"I think Kraude had the best format for online learning. I really appreciated the fact that he took away test and had us read for a quiz each class. Honestly,
this was the most engaged I was in learning for a class because of this format."
"Richard does a fantastic job with the course. He shows enthusiasm for the material and cares about the students. He is easy to listen to, engaging, and clearly enjoys
lecturing. I recommend him to future students and pray I can have him in future classes with his lovely personality, and outgoing lecture style."

Question Everything
The only way to know anything is through science. Technology is built on the ideas of dreamers and the precision of scientists. Carefully controlled experimentation and rigorous statistical analysis are the tools of progress.
​
My research focuses on Innovation, Sustainability, and Managing risk. I also practice what I preach, continuing to experiment, create, and grow.
Why
Just another Earthling aspiring to create and share knowledge
Fell off a cliff at 18, bounced down the mountain for a bit, and stopped a few feet from another cliff. I learned a lesson that day that was so obvious I shouldn't have needed to. You only have one life, LIVE it. Chase curiosity, pursue your passions and be a good person.
​
I'm passionate about science and contributing to our collective body of knowledge. Trying to have fun and pave the way for future generations by making Earth a better place. Leave no trace, except on those you become friends with along the way.
