Provided MRB ship-side stress support (composite & metallic) for Northrop Grumman's Strike division, resulting in exposure to many different analysis methods and tools. Actively creating scripting tools to increase the efficiency of time consuming analysis. Utilized analysis software to mesh test articles, determine loads and constraints, and correlate results to actual test data. Managed and owned MRB support initiatives which involved weekly briefings to director level leadership, sizing and analysis of test articles, and coordination over multiple departments

Redondo Beach, California, United States

Performed an in depth grid refinement study on Northrop Grumman’s Firebird UAV. Laid the groundwork to determine best practices for meshing and selecting the set of equations for conical shapes travelling at approximately Mach 20 in order to accurately predict heat flux. Opportunities to work in the areas of aero-thermal, supersonic inlet design, scripting, and more.

Hill Afb, Utah

Led the development of an accurate 3-D CAD model of the complete Fast Rising B-Plug (FRBP) system in NX, as well as updated and modernized supporting reference documentation of the same system. Supported the Ground Subsystems Support Contract on the Access Control team in numerous ways including government directed white paper research and submittals, engineering estimates, and updating technical documents.

Ogden, Utah

Worked closely with teams of engineers and customer OEMs on the root cause analysis of numerous critical airbag deployment failures. Learned highly valuable lean manufacturing techniques, and was able to apply these to reduce the scrap and increase the productivity of 3 production cells.

Logan, Utah

Conducted research on the fatigue effects on Hastelloy-X (a super-alloy used in the aerospace industry), when subject to multiple high frequency resonant modes at the same instance. Collaborated on research of how the resonant modes of alloy plates change when heated to extreme temperatures.

Logan, Utah

Improved communications and presentation skills through outreach activities and recruiting efforts such as giving tours on campus, running event booths, and volunteering at community STEM events.

Logan, Utah

Along with a team of engineers, designed and implemented 10 portable alpaca shelters for nomads in Peru.
