Littleton, Colorado

Task manager, Test Engineer and Certified Test Conductor at the Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company Engineering Propulsion Lab (EPL). I have written and performed tests on development, qualification and flight systems including; Orion, A2100 bus designs, EELV, valves and more. Enabling mission success through rigorous test-like-you-fly principals. My proudest achievements have been conducting spacecraft propellant loading activities.

To further the establishment of performance metrics for natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES), I performed analysis on data of novice and expert surgeons. Kinematic performance measures were calculated and statistical analysis performed to evaluate their ability to distinguish between the two groups. Paper accepted for presentation at NextMed / Medicine Meets Virtual Reality conference (MMVR21).

Provided data analysis of delivery metrics on two Pratt & Whitney engine programs, the F-135 and PurePower geared turbofan. Managed database systems to track thousands of project part statuses. Coordinated with suppliers, engineers and purchasers to ensure the projects remained on schedule
