I am a Structural Design Engineer with over a decade of experience across various stages of the engineering lifecycle, from part fabrication to conceptual and detailed design. My passion lies in solving complex aerospace challenges, from structural integrity to systems integration, and I have had the privilege of leading high-impact projects in both the commercial and defense sectors.Currently, I serve as the Forward Fuselage Design Lead for NASA’s X-66 program at Boeing, where I am responsible for the modification and integration of critical fuselage components. Throughout my career, I have led cross-functional teams, collaborated with suppliers, and ensured timely and successful project delivery, including multimillion-dollar contracts. My work has spanned from the development of detailed engineering schedules to mentoring teams and streamlining onboarding processes.I specialize in using advanced tools such as CATIA V5 for solid modeling and surfacing design, and I am proficient in managing engineering releases, performing preliminary sizing, and conducting root cause analysis. I also have extensive experience in layout development, interface definition, and working with composite and metallic structures.With a Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering and an active Tier 3 Secret DoD Security Clearance, I am eager to continue contributing to the advancement of aerospace technology. My goal is to help push the boundaries of what’s possible in aerospace design, with a focus on sustainability and innovation.
