I’m building Tubender, a startup aimed at revolutionizing the tube-bending industry by making an affordable, portable, freeform CNC tube-bending machine. CNC tube-bending machines on the current market can cost upwards of $100k, can span up to 20+ ft long, and require experienced individuals to use complex software. We aim to bring metal tube-bending to the masses and believe that small businesses and hobbyists should be able to have access to this technology.

- Responsible for optimizing reactor efficiency at a startup focused on transforming excess biomass into useable fuel.- Maximized flowrate in auger system using SolidWorks for physical protote testing, a 30% efficiency increase was achieved.- Aided in design and construction of PLC contoller for reactor monitoring system programming in Codesys all sensor datato simple user interface.- Headed load cell research and implementation into reactor system to monitor flowrate during loading process.- Led reactor testing operations, by coordinating with local almond farms to secure thousands of pounds of excess biomass.Streamlined transportation and unloading for optimal efficiency.- Successfuly completed course in Solid Dynamics, (ELS: 102) through AIChE. Became person of contact for flowrate optimization

- Enhanced manufacturing workflow efficiency at a particulate monitoring and control solutions company.- Studied the manufacturing process and used SolidWorks to design a part for more streamlined product assembly.- Soldered, wired, configured and tested particulate monitoring systems.- Supported product quality control to meet customer demands.
