Tethers Unlimited, Inc. is an American private aerospace company which performs research and development of new products and technologies for space, sea and air.• Developed embedded system hardware prototype for calibration set-up of COBRA-HPX satellite gimbal system. • Generated a legacy component library with ADS software to update system to new standard and verify model integrity of RF components for system test and validation. • ADS library utilized by electronics team of +5 members to simulate system performance, expediting system error identification and test time.

UC Davis College of Engineering, Engineering Student Design Center (ESDC)The Engineering Student Design Center (ESDC), a facility within the UC Davis College of Engineering that provides manufacturing education, resources, and support for students of every engineering discipline, as well as staff of the College as they work on projects for classes, research, independent study, and student design competition clubs. The space is a safe, supervised environment for students and staff to learn, practice, and master hands-on manufacturing and fabrication techniques relevant to their engineering education. • Enthusiastically spearheaded shop re-modeling with senior management with focus on new machinery, updated technical documentation, and training sessions for student learning, expanding student capacity x3 times. • Authored comprehensive technical documentation delineating proper procedures for shop machinery usage. • Managed operations of laser cutters, 3D printers, SMT and PCB LPKF machinery and solder stations for engineering students. • Mentored 2 new employees on managing shop responsibilities for full capability to manage shop without management supervision.

UC Davis College of Engineering, Engineering Student Design Center (ESDC)• Experienced in operations of machining and fabrication equipment (lathe press, drill press, woodworking), as well as electronics and rapid prototyping (laser cutters, 3D printers, SMT machinery, PCB mill, assembly, and manufacturing). • Supported and guided student use of lab equipment and rapid product prototyping methodologies. • Advised +20 student projects with shop equipment and project failure analysis efforts for +300 engineering students. • Consulted on projects including autonomous cars, high frequency radar systems, digital and integrated circuit design.

UC Davis Center for Integrated Computing and STEM Education (C-STEM Center)C-STEM develops computing and robotics technology, curriculum, and strategies, and provides professional development and support for K-12 teachers, even those without any prior coding and robotics experience, to integrate hands-on coding and robotics into their classroom teaching.• Connected local California school districts with UC Davis' C-STEM program to foster STEM professional development in classrooms. • Responsible for incoming communications and inquiries from C-STEM users, including technical and non-technical. • Coordinated legal on-boarding documentation for school districts to enroll in C-STEM curriculum. • Supported program roll-out to teachers and students for classroom use. • Trained Teacher Advisers on block code and Ch/C/C++. • Ensured timely and successful program milestones relating to program launches and contract completions with participating schools.

(TSA) Program is a program through Texas Instruments meant to develop and prepare new college graduates with electrical or computer engineering for a successful career in the semiconductor electronics industry. Through the rotation, participants are exposed to TI's entire portfolio, standard business processes, and customer base. • Collaborated with Santa Clara sales and field applications teams to support Tier-1 network server customers in Silicon Valley. • Main objectives for customer support: lowering overall BOM costs for multi-million dollar projects with pricing strategies, evaluating system designs and block diagrams, and improving system power efficiencies.

General Dynamics Mission Systems provides smarter mission critical systems and products to defense, civil government, intelligence and cybersecurity customers. The company's vision is a safer world through smarter platforms and missions.• Developed automated testing system for Software Defined Radio with BASH scripting and Linux OS as part of a team of 3 software engineering interns.
