-Assigned to the Smart Wind project to help create a method to understand the winds’ effects, such as vibration, strain, and stress, on wind turbine blades in order to determine the best methods to increase the turbine’s energy efficiency-Created and conducted various tests on a small wind turbine model made from a bearing and aluminum beams to scope the capability of the enDAQ sensors to provide data on the blades in terms of frequency, relative orientation, and rotation-Analyzed the enDAQ data in MATLAB to calculate the practical, theoretical, and FFT frequency of the blade, plot the relative orientation of a rotating blade using quaternions, and calculate the angle of a bent blade-Assisted in additional projects using Solidworks to create drawings, 3D print models, and designs for new project proposals

-Designed 50+ water, waste, and gas plumbing design drawings for commercial buildings using AutoCAD to maximize plumbing efficiency and follow state codes-Provided technical assistance to customers and field personnel, and worked directly with general contractors, architects, and utility consultants on projects-Trained 2 new plumbing project engineers regarding how to use AutoCAD, designing plumbing drawings, and project format and organization

-Maintain high standards of customer service during high-volume, fast-paced operations-Communicate clearly and positively with co-workers, management, and customers-Resolved complaints promptly and professionally

-Conceptualized overall design of the yearbook and successfully completed 200+ pages by the deadline-Managed 5 design interns: delegated, provided feedback, edited, and approved assignments-Collaborated and corresponded with 4 other yearbook editors and UCI’s Student Government and Student Media Assistant Director and graphic design team

-Collaborated with a team of 10 engineering students on a project called BottleBuilt: our goal was to design and create a house with bricks and a roof made out of recycled plastic bottles -Held the role of Design Engineer and worked with 3 other Design Engineers on the brick design: designed on SolidWorks, prototyped with 3D printers, and tested multiple designs

-Collaborated with 4 other design interns to design 200+ yearbook pages-Processed and completed tasks given by the Design Editor-Established close communication with the Design Editor and the other design interns
