When I was a kid, I wanted to be an inventor. And an explorer. And a writer. And…let’s just say a lot of things caught my interest. Fast forward 30 years and I’m all of these! My skillset is broad and I’m adaptable, but I wouldn’t call myself a jack of all trades. I’m the guy people call when they can’t figure something out. It could be anything: how to design an impeller for a jet engine, how to orient a 4-link suspension, how to teach a team of aerospace engineers to use SOLIDWORKS, or how to cross Utah’s South Desert solo in a 4wd. I’ve done it. Have a question? Ask me and I’ll have an answer or know where to find one.I'm proficient with:• SOLIDWORKS• Mechanical Design• Technical Writing• Blogging• Photojournalism• Sales• Fabrication• C++• MATLAB• Arduino• Microsoft Excel• Rapid PrototypingI have many achievements:• 9 SOLIDWORKS/3DEXPERIENCE certifications• Design/build custom 4x4’s• Accomplished technical writer and blogger• Design and print custom automotive panels• Designed and produced automated chicken coop/free-range system • Designed and manufactured autonomous active aerodynamics system for Formula SAE racecar• Designed and built magnetic field sensing robot with mechanical armEducation:• University of Utah: Mechanical Engineering (BS) 2013-2018• University of California at Davis: Cultural Anthropology and English (BA) 2005-2010• San Francisco State University: Technical and Professional Writing (certificate) 2012-2013
