Overview
University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
Carlton Reeves, PhD, is the Entrepreneur-in-Residence at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) Research Foundation. He received both his undergraduate and master’s degrees from Carnegie Mellon University in Mechanical Engineering in Pittsburgh, PA as well as receiving his doctorate from UWM.
Dr. Reeves studies the field of tribology, the science of friction, lubrication, and wear in mechanical contacts. His research focuses on the development of environmentally friendly lubricants that satisfy the combination of environmental, health, economic, and performance challenges of modern lubricants. More specifically, Dr. Reeves concentrates on the design and advancement of environmentally benign ionic liquid lubricants and the use of micro- and nano-scale technologies that facilitate energy conservation and sustainability in high and low temperature systems.
Beyond the rigors of academia, Dr. Reeves is highly involved in entrepreneurship and innovation. As a doctoral student, he participated in local and national business competitions, where he launched his own business Tali Payments. A cloud-based mobile payment service for the restaurant industry that is designed for high volume turnover transactions where customers can order and pre-pay for their meals from the convenience of their smartphone for faster “grab-n’-go” meal delivery without the hassle of waiting in long lines. Now, with the system developed; operational at local restaurants; and piloting at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Dr. Reeves and his team are ready to scale their business up for a variety of dining markets.
