Grew the Machine Learning Division by over 1800% in a five-year period becoming the second largest P&L division within the company.Led the development of five cloud-enabled, machine learning product lines from research concepts to fieldable systems including natural language processing, automated product generation, computer vision, technology tracking, and knowledge base management.Managed teams of software engineers and research scientists developing machine learning solutions for data analytics with intuitive interfaces abstracting away the high-end math and science.Successfully managed over 30 contracts as the Principal Investigator and/or Program Manager.Experienced across the entire product development process including requirement development, algorithmic research, technical design, development, hardening, product launch, and customer acquisition.Developed Machine Learning algorithms including: A technology and investment tracking capability built upon natural language processing A program management tool for predicted cost/schedule/performance slips A multi-modal data summarization capability An computer vision tool suite An automated Bayesian Network learning algorithm A collection of Statistical Topic Modeling algorithms A social network-based collaboration and teaming environment A multi-modal data fusion and entity disambiguation engine A geospatial and temporal event correlation and prediction engineImplemented and executed an agile planning and development process for software development. Oversaw the migration of the software development process to utilize automated build servers, testing and deployment increasing overall productivity.

Developed a web-based suite of Public Key Infrastructure tools using Java (J2EE) and the Struts and Spring Frameworks. Led a team of software and system developers responsible for the development of a Public Key Infrastructure for a multi-national government organization. Created and executed a test plan to ensure the suite met all requirements including zero-defect operation. Successfully met all government requirements leading to a direct, non-compete follow-on contract. Presented product demonstrations to government stakeholders resulting in product adoption and enhanced requirement determination. Performed project scheduling analysis for multiple government contracts. Mentored recent college graduates to ease the transition into the business world and to provide an understanding of the military and government environments. Organized and ran a series of technical brown bag lectures on information security and cryptography.Wrote and presented a lecture on the effects of quantum technologies on the future of cryptographic systems

Co-authored "A Fast-Response Microfluidic Gas Concentrating Device for Environmental Sensing" which was published in Sensors & Actuators: A. Physical. Developed computational models for microscale devices including a combustion chamber, a gas separator, and a counter flow heat exchanger. Performed analysis of engine performance and fuel selection for microscale unmanned aerial vehicles.Designed a microscale flow controller for use by NASA as the front-end to a mass spectrometer in an atmospheric probe. Designed a propulsion system for interplanetary missions utilizing nuclear and magnetic systems.

Tutored students and graded papers for the course "Fundamentals of Aerodynamics"

Naval Reactors

Primarily stationed at Naval Reactors Headquarters (NAVSEA 08) Ensured the proper handling of incidents and issues within the Navy's aircraft carrier and submarine fleets worldwide while maintaining cradle to grave coverage of the Navy's nuclear plants.Underwent graduate level training in the fields of Nuclear Engineering, Physics and Mathematics. Trained in the operation and design of nuclear power plants for use within naval applications. Coordinated and managed Research and Development teams of Navy and contractor personnel. Led the redesign team of engineers in charge of improving the performance and maintenance record of the specialized check valves used within the Navy's nuclear power plants. Successfully coordinated and completed testing of the redesigned check valves to military standards and specifications. Lowered the expected maintenance costs of each check valve by 80%. Converted the Fleet valve maintenance training from paper-based to computer-based multimedia lessons. Underwent training in Project Management, Six Sigma, ISO 9001, and Technical Writing. Completed a design project including the design of a nuclear power plant for use in a propulsion system. Participated in Integrated Product Teams for the development of fluid systems for use in the next generation aircraft carrier. Coordinated the redesign of the shielding system for the next generation aircraft carrier. Underwent training in military operations and completed Basic Officer Leadership Training.
