Frame is from Michigan. He and graduated summa cum laude from the University of Michigan (UM) with a B.S. in Atmospheric, Oceanic, and Space Sciences in 2001. Moving on to the Pennsylvania State University (PSU) for graduate studies, he earned a M.S. in 2003 with the thesis The Interaction of Simulated Squall Lines with Complex Terrain and a Ph.D. in 2008 with the dissertation The Dynamical Impact of Anvil Shading on Simulated Supercell Thunderstorms.

Career

Since 2010 he has been an instructor and assistant professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). Frame is a member of the American Meteorological Society (AMS) and Chi Epsilon Pi. He participated in the [https://www.eol.ucar.edu/field_projects/ihop2002 International H2O Project] (IHOP), [http://www.cswr.org/contents/rotate.php Radar Observations of Tornadoes and Thunderstorms Experiment] (ROTATE), [https://www.eol.ucar.edu/field_projects/vortex2 Verification of the Origin of Rotation in Tornadoes Experiment 2] (VORTEX2), co-PI of [https://www.eol.ucar.edu/field_projects/owles Ontario Winter Lake-effect Storms] (OWLeS), and other field experiments.
