-Developed a MATLAB-based end of line test application that receives, transmits, and analyzes CAN communications data for a Vessel Attitude Control System to catch defective products.-Designed and built electrical test fixtures used to connect the communications bus to the Test App, and provide high amounts of power to the system to simulate operation under high loads.-Validated proper system functionality during initial product launch by generating data analysis scripts used to parse through communications test data in order to catch crucial system failures.

Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, United States

Worked on a project called the Intelligent Water Project (IWP) to develop a system to monitor the status of hand pumps in various Sub-Saharan African countries. This system provides state of operation information on the pumps which allows them to be monitored remotely and allows for rapid intervention in the case of a failure.-Designed a custom cell phone PCB including required updates to system embedded processor code-Identified and corrected numerous programming issues within the system embedded code -Performed low volume surface-mount and through hole PCB manufacturing of boards I designed-Utilized Autodesk Eagle for schematic generation and PCB design-Gained strong documentation and technical writing skills by completing project records and reports-Developed presentation skills through participation in project reviews with international clients

Marietta, Pennsylvania, United States

-Completed various projects at a manufacturing plant including designing a camera system to help lower scrap on the production line, calibrating and configuring a viscometer to verify accurate viscosity of paint, and installing traffic lights in the plant to increase safety.-Learned how to program Allen Bradley controllers using PLC programming to control systems in a manufacturing plant. Also learned to troubleshoot electrical communications and PLC programming issues when the production line was down.-Developed exceptional project management skills by shadowing professional engineers during equipment installations, managing the installation of traffic lights in the plant, and communicating with vendors on various projects.

Dillsburg, Pennsylvania, United States

-Made use of engineering knowledge and problem-solving skills to design and produce a unique miniature solar-powered car for a STEM learning kit.-Developed important skills such as soldering, operating a laser-cutter, and 3D printing throughout the project design process.-Exceptional presentation abilities advanced through participation in a company-wide project review.
