• Power Electronics Simulation / AnalysisElectrical Hardware DesignPower Electronics Embedded Controls: Management, Development, TestTechnical Training
• Created three phase, 10kV, linear accelerator control system consisting of -three phase H-bridge inverter controls -coil switching control subsystem -fault detection subsystem -fiberoptic transmission subsystem
• Minimized three phase linear accelerator control system design cycle time, and automated coding by using Matlab / Simulink to design control system and Matlab Embedded Coder to generate and deploy target code for.
• Minimized development costs by using Altera Max II development board for rapid digital hardware development.
• Minimized motor drive testing costs by developing testing procedures and training lab technicians to perform testing.
• Reduced PCB procurement costs by training an intern to manage the procurement of seven distinct linear accelerator PCBs and their bills of materials.

• Sustainability Design EngineeringElectrical, schematic, PCB, and mechanical redesign for missile guidance system module.
• Eliminated periodic replacement cost of multiple thermally failure prone circuit boards by designing 3D, geometrically complex, "flex" circuit board assembly.
• Eliminated any external interface change costs by preserving electrical & mechanical backward system compatibility by coordinating requirements from management, client, manufacturing, and engineering
• Achieved micro-ampere signal integrity for missile guidance circuitry by using shield layers and minimized circuit areas.

Created curriculum for AP Physics, AB Calculus, BC Calculus, and general Physics classes.Maximized class communication by implementing and using Smartboard to conduct classroom presentations, and publishing classroom demonstrations for online access.
