Current Sr Power Industries Consultant at OSI/Aspen Tech (AZPN). Work with customers to build the best DERMS or Microgrid solution for them while also providing feedback to development to enhance the products.Formerly employed at Schneider (SNDR) in the engineering department working on modeling customer routes and optimizing fleet size and driver utilization. Tableau and Python are a couple of tools in my box to create the stories needed to convince customers to chose Schneider over the hundreds of other carriers. Previously at Schneider, I was an Ops Ex resource working on designing, testing, and implementing a state-of-the-art dispatching software for intermodal operations. We successfully automated 2/3 of dispatches while improving driver utilization, customer service, and fleet performance.I am a former Power Systems Engineer at Open Systems International. I am responsible for ensuring the installation and configuration of Distribution Management Systems for domestic and international projects. I have experience with power flow, topology, fault location isolation and restoration, switch order management, and volt-var control applications. Installation includes system level design of computer systems for use by the utility as well as design for 3rd party interfaces.Prior to Jan. 2016, I served as a Project Engineer at Open System International, where I designed, planned, integrated, tested, and installed hardware and software on customer systems; providing technical support of power system applications for real-time control systems. In my role, I was responsible for customizing systems, hardware, and network configuration based on customer's installation requirements, including maintenance support. I also conduct training with customers and develop technical documentation, while serving as the company's technical lead for OSISoft PI, completing validation testing for OSISoft PI updates with OSI software. I have an undergraduate degree in Physics with a minor in Astrophysics. I did undergraduate research with Dr. Nemiroff working with solar flares, smart phones, and social media. I have a graduate degree from the mechanical engineering department at Michigan Tech studying orbital trajectory optimization using genetic algorithms under Dr. Abdelkhalkik. I spent a summer internship at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center working for a.i. solutions, inc. developing programs in FreeFlyer for use at the Flight Dynamics Facility. I have experience in satellite dynamics from orbit determination to orbit planning as well as launch assistance.
