• Loads seat in control room during XB-1 ground test campaign; owned IADS screen development• Monitored airframe thermocouples, inlet pressure transducers, accelerometers, and strain gauges to ensure structural health during engine runs and low speed taxi testing• Analyzed post-mission data in MATLAB and presented data reviews to broader flight test team• Analyzed thermal environment to resolve component temperature exceedances• Designed primary and secondary structure in SOLIDWORKS for XB-1 fuselage landing gear bays and fuel bays• Coordinated with stress, subsystems, and manufacturing engineers to meet sizing, integration, and fabrication requirements; supported shop floor with aircraft assembly, testing, and NCR dispositions• Redesigned fuselage bulkheads to save more than 100 lbs during company-wide weight savings effort• Responsible engineer for drag chute structure and door mechanism, nose gear bay, and landing gear doors, including design in SOLIDWORKS, analysis in FEMAP, integration, and proof/functional testing• Lead analyst for main landing gear rigid link, drag link, and actuation mechanism; reduced critical path by more than 3 months with novel design

Hawthorne, California, Us

• Owned tooling used by integration and structural engineers for Dragon 2 assembly and Starship development from design and analysis in NX/NASTRAN through implementation on flight parts• Coordinated with manufacturing engineers to release GD&T compliant drawings and fabricate tools in-house• Sourced and proof tested custom fasteners for lifting fixture

Madison, Wi, Us

• Managed a team of students to design, analyze, and fabricate carbon fiber structure, aeroshell, and pressure vessel using fiberglass molds and prepreg carbon fiber• Coordinated integration of all other mechanical and electrical systems• Performed strength and aerodynamic finite element analysis in ANSYS to inform the design• Managed an $8,000 budget; acquired over $15,000 in company sponsorships

Madison, Wi, Us

• Fabricated a carbon fiber aeroshell for two hyperloop vehicles by creating foam plug with hot wire cutter, pulling fiberglass molds using vacuum resin infusion, then laying up prepreg carbon fiber• Won innovation awards for both vehicles at SpaceX’s Hyperloop Competition

One-on-one tutor for undergraduate students taking early engineering courses, such as mechanics of materials and dynamics.

Vélizy-Villacoublay, Fr

• Worked with software engineers, product developers, and tech support to verify and resolve CAD software problems using a database tracking system• Led logistics for three day long, on-site SOLIDWORKS 2018 beta event; worked with customers to report bugs, gather feedback, and demonstrate new features and technology• Earned professional certifications for proficiency in SOLIDWORKS (CSWP, CSWP-Simulation, CSWP-Drawings)

• Professor Simon Gilroy from the Gilroy Lab; UW Madison Botany Department• Design and fabricate a rocket and payload to study the effects of a rocket launch on the genome of plant material; payload is a biology module that will inject RNAlater into petri dishes after engine shutdown to freeze the plants’ genetic information• Consult with professors and perform calculations to evaluate design ideas• Created several CAD models of our biology module designs using SOLIDWORKS
