♦ Designed and implemented a laser processing technique that modified the aiming, fuzing, and firing assembly. Increased the safety of the operation by 100% and potentially saved the NNSA $168M in overhead costs.♦ Deployed advanced problem-solving techniques to proactively identify and replace a failed component. Drastically reduced downtime of a 50k G-lb. large centrifuge by 86%.♦ Designed a new test bed assembly component which reduced weight and material by 50%, decreased the overall… Show more ♦ Designed and implemented a laser processing technique that modified the aiming, fuzing, and firing assembly.

Improved the accuracy and efficiency of modeling and test programs.♦ Partnered with cross-functional teams across several international organizations to recommend compatibility certification of B61 and B83 nuclear weapons. Secured additional resources that supported multiple aircraft platforms. Show less

♦ Selected as one of only 20 participants to present a capstone project to the Laboratory Vice President. Accurately defended the position of the project with data analysis and comprehensive reports.♦ Orchestrated three separate flight tests of the B61 weapon system. Streamlined the development process and simultaneously reduced the planning time by 50%.

♦ Pioneered the first synthetic fuel blend use on the KC-135 aircraft. Facilitated flight test demonstrations that explored the path for the continued development and improvement of alternative fuels, published in Popular Mechanics.♦ Pooled resources of several engineering groups across the organization to problem solve the program’s most challenging issues. Slashed the number of F101 turbofan testing failures, which boosted the field unit availability. ♦ Sustained and analyzed the… Show more ♦ Pioneered the first synthetic fuel blend use on the KC-135 aircraft.
