Lead student driven session focusing on expanding knowledge in a variety of STEM classes though communicating complex ideas. Evaluate the student skills through example problems and aid students in working through them.

Attend classes to review and master course material. Assist students with solving differential equations, model mechanical systems, and do linear algebra by hand and in MATLAB.

Work with operators and the manufacturing engineering team to improve processes in the shop. One major project I did was to study existing engineering drawings and facilitate the creation of a working fixture for foaming to significantly reduce company time and money. This was done in collaboration with engineers, operators, and the maintenance team. I also made work instruction and modified company standard work to reflect the changes in process. Another project I did was a time study on a popular machine to gather data about the process and present my findings. This led into an in-depth analysis of proper threading techniques, and an analysis of drawings to determine out method for threading. This culminated in me making a machine by hand using the threading principled I researched. Finally, I made custom templates to meet a need for insulation cutting by modeling them in Creo and writing programs for the punch press to have them made. Other responsibilities as a manufacturing engineering intern I had were attending team meetings every week to show progress on my projects and offer insight into other engineers projects and work daily with the operators to resolve minor issues that they would be having.

Over the summer work as a landscaper. Work on a variety of landscaping projects, as well as perform mechanical and electrical repairs to equipment. Design and fabricate structures based on specifications from customers. In the winter work as a machine shop Assistant. Help with modeling, designing, and fabricating dumpsters. Create mock-ups from wood to analyze the design and look for possible improvements. Make a functional dumpster fully from steel using welding, with a design made to maximize possible load.

Sit in on a Physics 1061 class, Elementary Physics One, during the lecture. Answer questions that student have while the professor is lecturing, and at the end of each class walk around the room and assist students with workshop questions that cover the concepts reviewed in that days class.

Work at a restaurant as a host, and work with the rest of the staff to ensure that all customers are seated quickly at in the right spots. Communicate all information clearly with the customers when they have questions about their table wait time or seating arrangements.
