• Designed framing, layouts and UI/UX for coffee making station housing 16 dispensing mechanisms, and screens using rapid prototyping and human centered design skills• Created and tested concepts of user actuated switches and automated sensors using Solidworks for design, as well as 3D printing for physical prototypes, designing with a focus on accessibility for employees• Tested grease traps with overflow detection drop in methods such as float sensors ultimately providing a cost-effective draining and detection solution• Led design of user interactable projections by creating adjustable mount using 3D printing and engineering drawings with appropriate GD&T for manufacturability ultimately doing live testing in 3 commercial stores

Corvallis, Oregon, United States

• Led mechanical redesign of handheld bioprinting device including snap fit casing and printhead ejection mechanism to make it compatible with updated hardware• Modeled device parts in Creo Elements/Direct Modeling using rapid prototyping strategies such as 3D printing while utilizing DFM strategies to design for injection molding decreasing overall material usage by over 30%• Interacted with PCB manufacturer and created engineering drawings in Creo specifying location of components on 500 PCBs to be manufactured• Created test plan and analyzed accuracy of commercial single cell dispenser stepper motors through internal metrology lab using a coordinate measurement machine (CMM) tool and interpreting data using R

Richland, Washington, United States

• Analyzed heat transfer of test bed electrical heaters mimicking nuclear waste capsules in long-term storage to provide advance warning signs of chloride induced stress corrosion cracking using STAR-CCM+• Used python coupled with STAR-CCM+ to find uncertainty analysis of distribution of heat in test bed for special cases where one or more heaters were to fail in a non-simulated testing environment• Updated python scripts to run uncertainty analysis through all required cases and each iteration without restarting simulations on case-by-case basis increasing overall productivity• Created models of heaters and heater test bed in SolidWorks according to manufacturer specifications

• Facilitated weekly SolidWorks workshops for 50 engineering students, guiding them through creating parts and assemblies while integrating key elements of the engineering design process
