Secured SECRET clearance for a three month assignment in the United States Army Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases facility at Fort Detrick.Worked with engineers and machine shop technicians to revise the lab’s CAD documentation to reflect the current designs and have them ready to submit for a client review.Translated files from the lab’s previous SolidWorks format to the current AutoCAD format.

Served as Project Program Sponsor of CFD meshing software for a government project. Responsibilities included establishing software security/safety levels, testing software upgrades and maintaining a software life cycle document.Received accolades from CFD group for timely delivery of accurate and problem free computational meshes and static/animated visualizations of large CFD data sets.Developed a virtual reality model for a proof of concept training simulation. A safe and economical way to train refinery personnel and field engineers.Produced static, animated and real time virtual reality visualizations of large scale engineering projects (e.g. airports, LNG refineries, Nuclear waste handling and storage facilities), used for project reviews, public relations, proposal and bid packages.

Reduced schedule and budget of Computational Fluid Dynamic and Finite Element Analysis work by quickly producing accurate surface models and computational meshes.Received commendation for innovative work on a company funded study to combine discrete simulation data of airport passenger flow with 3D virtual reality graphics.Saved company substantial litigation fees by producing an animated video of an engineering model and accurately displaying the percentage of design the company was responsible for and the fraction of that involved in the accident.

Reduced training costs by instructing project engineers in the use of Computer Aided Design as CAD operating centers were phased out.Helped secure more work for company by supporting proposal and bid packages with animated video presentations of conceptual design models.Replaced expensive plastic models of refineries with real time animated computer models for project reviews.

Produced and edited piping instrumentation & process flow diagrams, site & equipment layouts, orthographic drawings, isometrics, structural details, electrical diagrams, architectural drawings manually and computer aided.
