In 2017, the Faboratory relocated from Purdue University to Yale University. I was a visiting researcher at Yale, and, while there, I finished my research towards my Ph.D. from Purdue.

West Lafayette, IN

I was a graduate research assistant pursuing a Ph.D. at Purdue University, working in the Faboratory (located at Yale University). The Faboratory is a soft-robotics research lab researching new materials and advanced manufacturing methods for soft robotic components.Designed several new soft composite materials that were optimized for low resistivity and.

I started off interpreting Spanish after returning from learning the language in Argentina for two years. I was initially heavily involved in interpreting for Parent Teacher conferences (and other school events) in the local community. I also spent one summer improving my medical interpretation skills at a local hospital, where I received a certificate for.

I was a research assistant in a conductive composites lab. We explored the conductivity curve of a highly flexible silicone-Nickel Nanostrand (NiN) composite material. We worked on developing and improving a model that explains interactions between the fiber and matrix on the nano scale. In 2015, I had a paper published from my work here. This paper.

As a Teaching Assistant for a 300 level Machine Design class, I was responsible for preparing instruction as well as supervision for the student's ANSYS learning activities.

As a Service Desk Analyst (for the Office of IT of BYU), I was required to effectively troubleshoot and resolve technological problems on a University campus of over 30,000 students.After providing excellent work for an extended period of time, I was given the position of team leader for a specialized team that was in charge of programming, maintaining.

Argentina

I served as a volunteer missionary for the LDS church in Argentina for two years. It was here that I gained a fluency in speaking, reading, and writing Spanish.

I had to push myself to my physical limits and beyond in order to complete my training and gain rank in the military.
