Mechanical design for micron precision optical fixtures.Mechanical design for high fluence DUV optics with photo-contamination considerations.Analysis of transmitted polarization degradation due to optomechanical stress birefringence.Mechanical design for tooling to support manufacturing.Analysis of system level thermal-mechanical stability to maintain optical alignment.Troubleshooting manufacturing and assembly problems to reduce cost and cycle time.Working with a cross functional team including electrical, optical, and system engineers.

Mechanical Design for consumer and industrial productsNew product conceptualization Test design and implementationTest automation and documentationSupervision of summer interns

Develop, Refine and Document production processes to improve product quality.Research potential process improvements.

Used CAD to develop manufacturing tooling for in-house processes. Worked closely with the end-user to insure the design would be functional. At the same time worked with the machinist to insure the design would be practical to produce.

Supported laboratory classes by setting up experiments and cleaning laboratory spaceProvided machining services for University laboratoriesDocumented and retrofitted experimental demonstration unitIdentified and disposed of hazardous waste

Master'S Degree, Optoelectronic System Engineering

Bachelor Of Science (Bs), Mechanical Engineering
