-Used Mentor Graphics to develop manufacturing processes and automate design for manufacturing (DFM/DFA)-Developed criteria and established standards for experimental, test and/or production processes-Performed failure analysis and quality assurance on PCBs to IPC standards

- Designed and drafted complex mechanical components, electro-mechanical components, and assemblies for automated machinery- Created and maintained project documentation such as machine operation manuals as well as verification and validation documents- Developed countermeasures to mechanical problems in new and existing products for continuous improvement- Ensured production parts and assemblies adhered to quality standards such as geometric dimensioning and tolerances as well as performance expectations with factory acceptance tests (FAT) and metrology equipment- Collaborated with cross-functional teams to work on new product development (design, build, test, and integrate)

- Operated and taught students, faculty, and staff how to use HAAS mini-mill, SolidWorks, and MasterCAM to machine HDPE, acrylic, aluminum, and alloy steel- Supported senior faculty in teaching concepts in manufacturing processes class including rapid prototyping, LEAN, Six Sigma, production process planning, tolerance stack-up analysis, as well as other various additive and subtractive manufacturing processes- Developed new standard operating procedures to improve turnover times for machining on HAAS mini-mill-Fabricated parts on a HAAS mini-mill, manual mill, manual lathe, and Epilog laser cutter

-Maintained and serviced laboratory equipment including msx saws, linear grinders, and other machines to ensure students had a trouble-free student experience-Monitored and procured materials from vendors to helped facilitate consumable usage of lab resources-Sectioned, mounted, and heat treated samples for research and development experiments-Cleaned laboratory to Metallurgy department and Environment, Health, and Safety(EHS) department standards

-Used advanced communication methods to teach science and engineering concepts to 3rd and 5th grade students with diverse backgrounds-Employed a rewards and incentives system to manage student performance-Proactively planned and implemented lessons in teams for a classroom 20 elementary students-Awarded Mentor of the Week

-Learned to apply various IT related technologies to help senior IT staff maintain student computers as well as the school website to ensure a smooth and trouble-free experience.-Technologies range from PC backup solutions via imaging to ensure quick turnaround times for computer maintenance, and minor HTML and Javascript modifications to existing web site.
