GN&C Hardware Certified Principal Engineer for star tracker and IMU’s for prime government contract.

Worked as a Manufacturing Engineer Intern at Lockheed Martin. Wrote Manufacturing Work Instructions, closed Change Records, updated Basis of Estimate database for parametric estimation of actual labor times.

Structures team lead for RocketSat-13. Worked to design, manufacture, and fly a passive strain energy sequencing mechanism for use in solar panel array deployment. Work in SolidWorks, MATLAB, and ANSYS for design and FEM analysis. Use of MATLAB for testing and data processing. Design of composite tape-springs. Design of post-processing software in MATLAB.

Worked as structural engineer on the RocketSat-12. This project's objective was to launch a payload on a sounding rocket to analyze RF signal's from Doppler radar stations to characterize modes and establish VCP connections with ground stations. I was a member of the structures team, helping to design, manufacture, and environmentally test the payload. Work in SolidWorks, ANSYS, and MATLAB for design and FEM analysis. Work with testing procedures and data acquisition and analysis. Post-flight analysis of performance and structural integrity.
