Waterloo, Ontario, Canada

• Designed and developed shape memory alloy heat engine cycle-life tester with force, displacement, flow, and temperature sensing to get accurate data for modeling and material development.• Developed thermal-mechanical models to characterize the cycle-life tester before design, alongside developing Labjack (C++) code to automate control and failure detection. • Utilizing Fusion 360 CAD & CAM to machine steel, aluminum, and plastic parts on Tormach 770.

Hamilton, Ontario, Canada

• Leading Ergonomics team to redesign pedal tray, steering wheel, and carbon fiber seat to decrease complexity and increase functionality and form. • Developed a modular seat rig to collect driver profile data allowing us to create custom foam inserts to be used during races.

Ontario, Canada

• Designed, manufactured, and tested a steel push bar for competition• Involved with CAD and FEA for the next-generation monocoque design• General 3D Printing support for battery manufacturing

Waterloo, Ontario, Canada

• Designed & Implemented femtosecond laser cutting gantry for 2D CuNiTi actuators & fixtures for high-volume orthodontic wire production saving $8000/month through workflow automation.• Designed, integrated, and tested new 2D CuNiTi self-biasing actuator to be used in collectors coins for Royal Canadian Mint• Performed hands-on tests & data analysis to characterize failure mode of 2D NiTiHf actuators and FEA analysis to optimize geometry. • Completed Stiffness/Mass optimization [35% lighter, 15% stiffer] for 3D-printed linkages with embedded composites for consumer VR Haptics Feedback Project.
