Used CAFTA, CFAST, and Microsoft suite softwares to create fire probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) models for various reactor types including SMR’s and second generation reactorsCreated VBA code to automate complex Excel sheets and Access databases to improve efficiencyAnalyzed technical drawings and schematics of nuclear power plant electrical systems to document locations of electrical cables that may be impacted in fire scenariosCompared different reactor systems and functionalities to develop matrices of dependencies between systems

Developed event trees for 38 internal initiating events for the EBR-II sodium cooled fast reactorUsed both machine learning and analytical inverse estimation techniques to determine the conditional probabilities of functional events for the EBR-II.Developed and implemented documentation for the OpenPRA software by researching probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) and probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) models. Proactively studied associated risks and hazards with nuclear reactors by reading safety analysis reports.
