● Lead engineer overseeing manufacturing metal bonds, composites, and assemblies projects from ideation through production and in compliance with clients’ specifications.● Coordinated with customers’ engineering teams to resolve/reduce manufacturing problems and improve part producibility at the design stage● Collaborate with Design Engineers and Manufacturing Technicians to generate and iterate on manufacturing tools, fixtures, and shop aids necessary for project success. Write technical manufacturing instructions for cross functional partners to design and build according to project requirements.● Perform variations of testing (destructive, thermal profile analysis, verifilm layups) early in project start-up to validate manufacturing processes. Troubleshoot production issues to determine root causes and develop corrective actions and process improvements● Created a script using VBA to quickly aggregate, chart, and analyze historical production data, allowing supervisors and engineers to easily track production efficiency and pinpoint areas of improvement on various product lines

● Performed daily internal audits for dozens of manufacturing rejects that allowed for the successful containment and correction of defects within 12 hours● Improved Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM) inspection efficiency by 20% with VBA and increased organization● Created/updated SOPs for destructive testing, load testing, and CMM operation, which standardized processes and minimized testing/inspection errors.

● Taught a class of twenty second grade students for three hours a day.● Created lesson plans and organize fun/educational activities for students.

● Encouraged hundreds of under-served high school students to pursue a higher education● Presented to groups of 5 to 50 students/parents and provided individual help when needed● Organized events and presentations individually and with a team of four

● Worked on circulation desk, Interlibrary Loans and searching university databases.● Answered service questions and referred reference questions.
