• Track parts under LEAP product line to observe up to date information on part quantity at each operation and relay that information to customer and planner as required.• Resolve and track issues with regards to operations to find trends that can be investigated and corrected to ensure more efficient and thorough logistics.• Serve as interface between ERP system (Syteline 9) and shop floor.• Train new employees and interns with regards to operations and use of ERP system.• Lead Kaizen event improving layout of shop detail crib and shipping area, as well as the processes for receiving and stocking details, picking details to jobs, shipping parts to outside vendors, and moving parts to MRB, Scrap, and RTV locations in the shop.

The CCSU Hybrid Propellant Rocket Engine team conducts tests observing oxygen flow rate, rocket thrust, exhaust temperature, and cross chamber pressure on a horizontally mounted hybrid propellant rocket, over a range of variables including oxygen storage pressure, solid fuel grain composition, and solid fuel grain structure. My project team sought to observe the operation of the engine at much higher oxygen storage pressures than previously tested. because of this, many issues with the existing setup needed to be addressed in order for accurate testing to be conducted. • Develop, implement, and verify electrical changes to test equipment including complete overhaul of control system using CLICK PLC controller, new power source, electro-mechanical relays, and transorb to dampen electrical impulse to flow valves.• Develop, implement, and verify mechanical changes to test equipment including fabrication of new mounts for thermocouples, and upgrades to piping system to allow for increase in mass flow rates without the presence of supersonic flow.

• Lead a team of students to design and build a rover for the NASA Human Exploration Rover Challenge. • Develop project plan designed to engage team members, and drive results.• Ensure quality with regards to design and manufacture of the entire vehicle.• Program and operate 3 axis CNC machine to manufacture parts including but not limited to: steering bell cranks, mounting plates, custom shaft collars, suspension brackets, wheel knuckles, and seat mounts.

• Design, build, and implement machines to automate existing unsafe, and inefficient processes for assembling, and testing products in production. • Use Click PLC programming software to control pneumatic systems efficiently, and safely. • Validate, and document improvements made to assembly cells on the production floor.
