Orchestrated engineering projects to test the impacts of different fuels and lubricants on a varietyof test articles (ICE, hybrid and electric vehicle platforms, and fuel cell vehicles). Served as both theproject manager and technical point of contact regarding all phases of research. As a projectmanager, I've written project proposals, aligned testing plans, sourced materials, defined scope andrecommended tools, coordinated project modules/activities/processes, provided oversight, andprepared engineering reports. As the technical lead, I've utilized CAD software to design new teststands, provided engineering calculations regarding sub component design validation, implementeddifferent controls strategies to maximize modified test cell architecture, programmed python scriptsto automate workflow/efficiency, and generally was the first responder for any technicaldifficulties/problems that arose.

Championed the initiative to automate the strength calculation process of multiple product lines using knowledge of Mathcad and PTC Creo software solutions.Empowered the Organization to Capture an 87.5% Time Savings in the Strength Calculation Process, from an average of six minutes (360 seconds) to 45 seconds, by rapidly learning both software programs, creating shaft engineering drawings in PTC Creo, designing solutions to integrate Mathcad drawings/calculations into PTC Creo, and providing timely deliverables. Successfully Automated the Strength Calculation Process of Eleven Individual Products with Full Accuracy. Selected to continue the project and recreate the process for 30+ products.Authored, Prepared, and Disseminated Standard Operating Procedures, Best Practice Manuals, and Training Documents on the Strength Calculation Process for the continued initiative following internship completion.

Cultivated first-hand experience in the principles and processes of mechanical engineering while serving as an intern for an organization dedicated to designing and manufacturing drilling products/solutions for use across the market.Steered a Complete Engineering Redesign, Fabrication, and Assembly of an Oil Fill Station (comprised of hoses, vacuums, metal framing, tubing, oil pumps, and wires) to meet ambitious production volumes in a myriad of conditions. Milestones: o Reduced Valve Pressure by 97.6%, from 10,000 microns to 240 microns, improving the tool's overall performance. o Compressed the Size of the Oil Fill Station by 25%, from 48 inches to 36 inches, to meet reduced height requirements. o Utilized Knowledge of Fittings, Bolts, and Brackets (rather than welding all parts together) for the station to be easily broken apart, serviced in the field, and brought back to the facility as needed. o Designed Engineering Schematics, Blueprints, and Drawings implemented as standards and best practices throughout the department. o Formulated a Solution to an Emerging Issue regarding an acrylic tube resize by identifying a machine shop to complete the cut. Sourced and Secured Resources (materials, parts, and equipment) from third-party vendors/suppliers. Prepared cost estimates, gained purchase approvals, defined correct fitting sizes, developed bills of materials, and tracked usage.
