Mississauga, Ontario, Canada

• Studied the potential impacts of construction vibration on surrounding buildings and facilities, and synthesized findings in written reports that informed the building approval process.
• Worked directly with clients to design and propose noise and vibration mitigation measures to ensure their needs were met.
• Inspected sites to ensure the appropriate construction and installation of noise and vibration mitigation measures.

Guelph, Ontario, Canada

• Developed and implemented a standardized procedure, including on-site measurements and air quality reports, to identify and improve potential air quality and ventilation issues within livestock barns.
• Conducted a preliminary study regarding the use of spectrally selective coatings on greenhouses to minimize energy consumption and designed a test plan to determine long-term feasibility of the project.
• Conducted a study on the potential of monitoring yield and growing conditions in vineyards to increase yield.

Mississauga, Ontario, Canada

• Studied the potential impacts of environmental noise and vibration associated with proposed building developments and synthesized findings in written reports that informed the building approval process.
• Performed on-site measurements of various acoustical properties including sound pressure levels, sound power levels, and ground vibration particle velocities.
• Reviewed and marked-up structural and architectural drawings for future inclusion of vibration isolation measures.

Kitchener, ON

• Designed and conducted test plans for new mechanical, software, and PLC components of various die manufacturing systems.
• Conducted an investigation on the cracking of heated steel during the bending process and synthesized findings in a report.
• Designed and implemented a steel dispenser guard for a robotic cutting die maker. The guard included an integrated safety switch and a reversible access door to be used for multiple steel feeding orientations.
• Conducted a study on the steel length compensation needed when notching steel in order to minimize the wasted material.

Cambridge, ON

• Conducted a study on steel rolling pace to improve, standardize, and monitor the production pace for all products rolled on site.
• Analyzed rolling mill energy consumption to determine the optimal production ratio of electrical and gas energy usage.
• Conducted an investigation on natural gas usage throughout the plant to determine gas meter discrepancies.
• Designed equipment and implemented stands for crane attachments.

Plattsville, ON

• Conducted a study analyzing the effects of gloss on the performance of sand paper, in order to implement a glossmeter on the production line.
• Implemented and programmed a sensor to automatically splice paper on the production line.
• Created a database to record and review reported tags.
