Dallas, Texas, United States

• Designed and built a custom rotating table, integrating purchased components with original parts modeled in SOLIDWORKS, and created a motion-enabled assembly• Produced detailed fabrication drawings and DXF files using DraftSight, collaborating closely with the tool and die shop to ensure manufacturability• Demonstrated lean manufacturing principles by repurposing scrap materials to fabricate custom frame and mounting plates using mill and bandsaw, showcasing hands-on skills while reducing waste and optimizing resource utilization

• Used XFLR5 to design a statically and dynamically stable aircraft• Sized aerodynamic surfaces, including the wings, horizontal tail, and vertical tail• Leveraged SOLIDWORKS to create jigs for mounting the horizontal and vertical tail onto empennage, allowing for accurate hole spacing and account for angle offset• Performed electronic sizing analysis to guide component selection and estimate static thrust, dynamic thrust at cruise speed, and battery life

• Ran simulations in ANSYS FLUENT to minimize skin drag to improve aircraft performance and endurance• Researched high lift devices to maximize the coefficient of lift generated by the wing• Designed components including the hinges, mounting plates, and jigs using SOLIDWORKS• Performed weight optimization on structural aircraft components to reduce production time, save material, and decrease takeoff weight by 35%• Assisted in the manufacturing of aircraft prototypes, including laser cutting fuselage components and 3D printing jigs and structural components
