Execute, communicate, and support customized designs of industrial gas turbine packages on a project basis in collaboration with sales order team.

UCSD Transportation and Auxiliary ServicesDeveloped new environmentally suitable and self sustainable bicycle programs at the UCSD Campus, helped the initiative for an environmentally responsible school, and prevented over 30,000lbs of CO2 every year from campus/transportation exhaust.Acted as liaison for green transportation and the greater UCSD community, increasing the use of bicycle programs from under 1200 riders to over 1800 riders and collaborated on the San Diego Master Bike Plan, adding over 25 miles of bike routes.

Jacobs School of EngineeringCollaborated closely with the Deans of the Jacobs School of Engineering, staff, and faculty to increase engineering student involvement by 50% in professional, social, philanthropic, research, academic, and special interest project activities.Managed 15 TESC board members and $110,000 budget to effectively plan and implement nine separate, grand scale events throughout the year, hosting over 5000 people at the largest, including faculty, staff, alumni, industry, and students. Established firm connections with corporate affiliates for annual student run Disciplines of Engineering Career Fair (DECaF), bolstering a current increase of 11 companies, as compared to last year, with a current total of 77 registrants, yielding $58000.Mediated between 27 engineering organizations by establishing regular open forums, regulating project spaces, and aiding in multidisciplinary project teams, resulting in an increase of two future projects for the composite Formula SAE and CanSat.Promoted engineering leadership at the Jacobs School by hosting the National Association of Engineering Student Councils Western Regional Conference, which brought in 100 engineering student leaders from ten Western Region states.

Assessed, monitored, and modeled various energy aspects of a Honda facility, including the lighting, water, and HVAC systems, to identify energy saving measures upward of 10% on the average energy bill.Collaborated with small team to design practical energy saving proposals for the building, including adjusting HVAC systems, lighting systems, insulations systems, and windows.
