I developed a fully open-source modeling framework in python that approximates how a floating body's motion is affected by the surrounding water. I also utilized high power computing to analyze the tradeoffs between low fidelity and high-fidelity models when simulating fluid structure interactions.• Published fully open-source boundary element method solver to pypi - https://pypi.org/project/litebem/ • Showed that low fidelity models can under predict the loads experienced by floating bodies• Learned coding best practices including testing with Pytest and documenting with Markdown• Maintained a repository on GitHub and used GitHub actions to build documentation websites• Completed the Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internship program

I assisted the product development team in the design of new cranes and the improvement of existing product lines. I also resolved issues on the production floor by revising the necessary parts/assemblies in Solidworks.• Designed for manufacturability and assembly • Worked through iterative design and detail design processes regularly• Developed a rotation bearing test fixture for a new crane• Attained Solidworks Associate certification by passing the required online examination
