Work closely with management team to develop and coordinate all mechanical design efforts for custom industrial automated guided vehicle projects.• Mechanical design, analysis, and drafting of customized automated industrial vehicles • Create Solidworks macros to reduce 20% of workload during drafting/quoting processes • Coordinate with multiple departments to quote, order, receive, and assemble vehicles• Provide support to shop during assembly and testing of vehicle • Create assembly instructions with required specifications to ensure vehicle was structurally sound • Define detailed shipping instructions• Communicate with vendors on day-to-day basis to define company desires, needs, and schedule requirements • Communicate with customer to verify design parameters, include customer on design choices, and verify project requirements were addressed and documented• Use Solidworks to design mechanical systems and use ASME Y14.5 for drawings to improve upon existing drawings/designs

Redesigned and tested subsea CAD assemblies using ANSYS FEA. Calculated estimated stress, strain and deflection to verify structural safety during fabrication and deployment. Identified design flaws and presented design risk analyses to clients on multimillion-dollar contracts to address concerns before fabrication. Validated engineering designs and calculations with industry code using Mathcad. Compiled results into a report summarizing expected loads and structural response. Investigated changeout history of recurring equipment replacements and identified root cause of failure. Proposed changeout philosophy to reduce company overhead expense. Examined and repaired field equipment by leading shop technicians and issuing engineering change notices (ECN), service orders (SO), and quality notifications (QN). Fabricated test module to interface with customer equipment. Improved upon existing fastener designs to reduce safety incidents during transport. Tracked, replaced, and calibrated sensors for subsea control systems. Tested product sensor systems (e.g. hydraulics, sediment concentration, communications, temperature, acceleration, and fluid density) interfacing with ROV or subsea control system. • Analyzed load bearing subsea structures using FEA• Specified sensor requirements and test criteria for mobilized equipment• Rapid fabricated and tested prototype support hardware

Led an undergraduate team of mechanical engineers to design, document, and model an amphibious VTOL drone capable of remote delivery and retrieval of a marine payload. Calculated size, surface area, and drone body shape using MATLAB and XFLR5 to minimize weight and maximize power. Shaped and sized wings by researching expected environmental conditions and estimating internal control system weight/size. Selected body foil with aerodynamic analyses in XFLR5. • Designed lifting body and cargo systems• Designed control surfaces and systems• Developed proof of concept and led team to fabricate mock model of drone

Tracked shock propagation of artillery weapons and pipe bombs using background orientated schlieren (BOS) imaging to research pressure and temperature differential in energetic material. Studied thermal boundary layer formation and refractive indices to predict convective heat transfer. Studied convective properties of volatile aerosolized particles.

Utilized software to identify hollow nanofibers in a cross section of epoxy and count the number of fibers in a given specimen. Created macro to be used for industrial scale fiber counting. Tracked deliverables, recorded meeting notes, assisted in researching and developing a revolver coupling for housing in a water desalination unit designed to filter 30, 000 gallons of water per day.

Generated curves of stress, depth of damage, and location of damage based on fractured EUD4TEA light emission. Selected materials for kolsky bar impact testing. Identified weaknesses in proposed design and selected material based on strength. Optimized cell size for bar impact testing, damage prevention, material analysis. Standardized impact specimens and provided necessary dimensions and materials for use in AutoCAD simulation. Tracked deliverables and deadlines using Gantt Charts. Ensured members of team were notified and accountable for weekly deliverables. Recorded meeting notes and assisted in creating status reports, updates, and presentations for design conference.

Secured fragile laboratory equipment, imported computers, inventoried mechanical engineering test equipment. Transferred breakable and potentially hazardous lab equipment. Prepared laboratories to ensure safe workspace. Removed hazardous waste material including acids. Neutralized surfaces of lab tables covered in chemical waste material. Cleaned interior of fume hoods. Ensured use of proper personal protective equipment.

Collected and analyzed authentic street runoff to identify concentrations of biological and chemical pollutants in residential street storm runoff. Designed filtration matrix with reusable materials to attenuate, passively treat, and release storm water. Achieved successful removal of >99% biohazards and reduced chemical pollutants >60%.Filtration matrix designed to remove biological contaminants (e.g E. Coli, enterococci such as E. faecium and E. Faecalis, total coliforms) and chemical waste by attracting charged ions in chemical compounds and bacterial cells using MnO coated sand and granular activated carbon. Created strain of permeable pavement using gravel and cement to attenuate street flooding by a volumetric flow rate of 5 gallons/minute per 206 in3 of permeable pavement strain. Results verified through physical and chemical test indications including: turbidity, chemical oxygen demand, MPN (most probable number) of bacterial cells, and suspended and volatile solids. Results taken before and after treatment using engineered filtration matrix. Trained to dispose of BSL 2 organisms, chemical waste, bacteria cultures. Experience using fume hood, furnace, autoclaving machines, turbidimeter, hot plate, and vacuum pumps.
