Senior Design Project The University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL • Generated three preliminary unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) tiltrotor designs given customer specifications, constraint analysis, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) calculations • Performed propeller analysis in XROTOR to determine the ideal propeller size, number, pitch, twist angle, and other parameters for each design • Modeled airfoil designs to produce energy conservation, efficiency, flight speed, and thrust-to-weight curves over a given rotations per minute (RPM) range for each airfoil

Tuscaloosa, Alabama, United States

• Designed and tested pull-out simulation of layered Graphene Copper composite in the Multiscale Computational Mechanics and Materials Lab to simulate Van der Waals interactions between atom layers • Simulated axial tension on the Graphene Copper composite through LAMMPS, with the goal of improving composite interfacial shear strength • Translated LAMMPS raw output data into readable stress strain curves of the simulation through Microsoft Excel functions and the Python programming language

Tuscaloosa, Alabama, United States

• Utilized facility knowledge to assist patrons through quality customer service and efficient operation of aquatic center facilities • Led staff in-services by demonstrating rescue techniques and directing teams of coworkers in practicing technical skills and emergency scenarios • Maintained aquatic center facilities through daily opening duties, in-shift supervising tasks such as pool counts and safety breaks, and closing duties

Remote

•Tutored student athletes at Georgia Tech in college subjects, including precalculus, advanced calculus, microeconomics, macroeconomics, and physics • Employed memorization, conceptual practice, and visual learning techniques to retain conceptual and empirical knowledge for given subjects • Kept detailed records for given student-athletes to individualize each session to the student’s learning needs and patterns

Chattanooga, Tennessee Area

• Oversaw all waterfront property, including a dock and swim area, ski boats, commercial inflatables, personal watercraft, and related equipment • Led all staff instruction and used Microsoft Excel to increase efficiency of staff scheduling by avoiding repeated task scheduling and duplicate cabin booking • Developed and proposed a plan to the camp director to restructure the role of dock staff, reorganizing responsibilities and changing hiring practices to better suit the role
