As a Design Engineer, I am responsisble for leading with innovative solutions for our clients and providing design support for our sales team. Whether a design-build project or responding to a consultant specification, my team relies on my product knowledge and attention to detail to help create and verify the very best audio-visual solutions. Responsibilities include:● Consultation and design of Fortune 500 communications solutions● Supports account managers and client representatives by interpreting project specifications, defining functionality, determining system layout and developing bills of materials and project implementation documents● Assist sales in creating sales proposals and an accurate statement of work● Generation of comprehensive project descriptions and scopes of work● Maintains bill of materials template with updates for both domestic andinternational features

I regularly volunteered my time to the Evangel Church Media Ministry. This includes being on a team of storytellers and professionals that are passionate about helping to deliver the word of God both in-person and online. Every week, we produce multiple live streams. My responsibilities and positions include the following:● Director: Responsible for final calls on camera composition and all published live content● Technical Director: Video board operation and switching● Producer: Responsible for overall production and monitoring of all live streams● Camera Operator: Shot composition, camera movement and subject tracking

ACTIVU manufactures and develops turn-key IP based video wall and collboration solutions with a focus on creating situational awareness in the command and control environment. As a systems design engineer, my primary responsibilities included:● Consultation and design on commmand and control visual display systems for government and commercial applications● Interfacing with the sales and client representative to interpret project specifications, functionality, determine system layout and develop bill of materials and project implementation documents● Assist sales in creating sales proposals and an accurate statement of work ● Responsible for generating comprehensive project descriptions and scope of work● Create drawings for jobs as needed.

My primary responsibilities included consultation and design of audio/visual systems for corporate, university and residential applications. My daily tasks included detailed design, specification and the creation of CAD drawings for multi-system projects, including presentation, sound reinforcement, video/audio teleconferencing and control systems. On any given project, I would coordinate with relevant trades such as architects, general contractors and electrical contractors.Following are some of my highlights, while working at HB: ● United Nations, North Lawn Conference Building: I was the primary engineer responsible for all of the infrastructure/electrical drawings and facility studies as it relates to AV. Project cost: $20 million.● Museum of Art & Design (Columbus Circle, NYC): I was the primary engineer, providing functional diagrams for rack build and field installation. I created electrical and facilities drawings to be coordinated with other trades on the project. Project cost: $570,000.● The Mark Hotel (NYC): I was the primary engineer for this 6 star hotel and residential building on the east side of New York City... a complete Crestron control and automation solution. Project cost: $1.1 million.● New York Law School (NYC): I was the primary engineer, providing functional diagrams for rack build/field installation and created electrical and facilities drawings to be coordinated with other trades on the project. Project cost: $2.8 million.

Crestron is the de-facto standard for automation and control systems in the AV industry. While at Crestron, I provided design level support for dealers and consultants. Interfacing with customers everyday required my attention to giving exceptional and consistent customer support. Preparation of accurate multi-million dollar quotes were part of my everyday tasks. This required proficiency at reading and interpreting consultant and architectural drawings. I used AutoCAD to create functional system drawings which aided in systems design documentation. I also did in depth research on competing product lines to prepare comparison and contrast information useful during the requirements and specification phase for projects. I worked with an incredible group of talented and dedicated individuals... we played as hard as we worked, which made for an environment conducive to productivity and teamwork.

Modern Mass Media (MMM) is where I transitioned all that I learned design-wise from mechanical engineering to audio/visual engineering. MMM's sister company, Smith Meeker Engineering (SME), is where I had my first taste of consulting and was able to begin to understand the A/V tri-fecta: consulting, manufacturing and integration.While at MMM/SME, I consulted on and designed audio/visual systems for corporate, university, church venue and residential applications. More specifically, I did detailed design, specification and CAD drawings of sound reinforcement systems, video/audio teleconferencing systems and presentation systems. To bring my designs full circle, I also spent time building and installing the systems I designed. I also learned to coordinate with relevant trades, such as architects, general contractors and electrical contractors. Finally, I got my first real experience with the integration of control and switching systems, such as Crestron and Extron.

A year after school, I found my way from MA down to NJ to put my mechanical engineering degree to the test. While at NJIT, I worked at the Center for Manufacturing Systems: a program for medium to small sized business in NJ that required design and manufacturing services. I also spent time working with faculty and their students.I was responsible for the development and/or modification of customer ideas during the initial design phases (i.e. brainstorming, judging feasibility, developing customer requirements) or a more advanced phase (i.e. generating concepts for functions, reverse engineering, etc.). I worked on projects from concept to completion in the following categories: Medical, jewelry, machine design, sports design, eye wear and the arts.My daily work included Modeling of 3D solids and analyzing those models using ProEngineer, AutoCAD, Solidworks and ProMechanica and ProManufacturing; software used as integral part of design process. I read customer blueprints to determine manufacturability and created dimensioned part and assembly drawings with bill of materials.I was responsible for operation and maintenance of the Stereolithography (SLA) rapid prototyping lab. With an understanding and execution of SLA build concepts, I was able to use this cutting edge process as an integral part of the design process.

UNIFI Communications was a global company with an IP based faxing service. While at UNIFI, I troubleshot alarms over a WAN using UNIX scripts, maintained a database for troubleshooting specific alarms and acquired basic knowledge of networking equipment and protocols.
