I worked under the world-renowned professor Dr. Yanyao Jiang by preparing samples for fatigue and crack growth tests. I also created engineering drawings for specimens and specimens holders in SolidWorks, for use by in-house and external machinists.This position, as well as a Materials class I took that was taught by Dr. Jiang, gave me an intuitive understanding of fatigue and crack growth.

I developed standards for data input into the company's ERP system for all new parts. I also created a 60-page manual detailing these standards, and I communicated with management from across the company to revise the standards I had created to everyone's liking.While at EP, I also developed many macros in Excel to greatly increase my own productivity, as well as to visualize data for some members of management. I enjoy being able to use Excel effectively, which is a skill I definitely developed during this internship.
