• Modified the material properties of ballistic fibers by developing a high throughput fiber coating machine, which successfully coated ballistic fibers with high performance polymers
• Developed robust testing apparatuses, which allowed for the thorough and repetitive testing of advanced ballistic textiles in aggressive ballistic, abrasive, and blast scenarios
• Assessed the performance of a suite of novel armour packages through ballistic and blast arena testing, retaining successful candidates for continued development

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

• Designed, manufactured, and integrated custom instrumentation, which obtained high strain rate data used in peer-reviewed publications and reports to army research groups
• Utilized MATLAB to develop an analytical model, which guided the design of high velocity impact experiments, and ensured the successful execution of experiments
• Performed an iterative analysis of projectile design by quantifying projectile yaw at impact, and determined a compromise that minimized yaw, while maintaining low weight and cost
• Ran lectures as a substitute for both the undergraduate and graduate levels to effectively teach technical course content and maintain student engagement
• Through tailored feedback and constructive discussions coached upwards of 500 students to succeed in an open-ended project, culminating in the design of inventive prototypes
• Effectively reinforced knowledge and engaged students by planning problem analysis sections that furthered their understanding of course material and ensured their continued attendance
