• Designed/drafted earthen flood protection levees for client’s residence estimating earthwork volume inspecting construction • Created grading plan for recharge basin estimating cut and fill volumes required to submerge the basin by gravity flow • Used on site measurements & survey data to calculate required cross section for gravity flow channels to fill recharge basin• Worked with local irrigation district to select and approve large diameter flow meter for measuring recharge volume • Completed feasibility study, preliminary design, and economic analysis for high flow flood protection pumping system • Utilized LIDAR and survey data to create topographic contour maps of 120,000+ acres of farmland near Tulare Lake

Responsibilities: • Primary equipment selection including tanks, mixers, centrifuges, heat exchangers, compressors, blowers, and pumps• Ancillary equipment selection including valves, sensors, flow meters, biogas equipment, etc. • Authored and oversaw creation of detailed plan sets including PFDs, P&IDs, and 2D / 3D models • Created drafting templates and protocols for AutoCAD and SMAP P&ID that are in use today• Directed engineers, draftsmen, operators, and fabricators in designing, inspecting, and commissioning three digester pilots• Worked with integrators to program and maintain PLC systems for multiple pilots using Allen Bradley/Ignition/Motorola • Trained subordinate engineers and draftsmen in drafting, design, organizational, and intrapersonal skills

• Worked with professional engineers to write and draft recommendations for check structure retrofit• Communicated with engineers and manufacturers to complete CEQA application for dairy digester

• Redesigned adhesive strength testing device improving portability, durability, ease of use, and international usability by incorporating previously separate components into a single compact unit and selecting a multi-voltage vacuum pump• Drafted 3D model device using SolidWorks, generating exploded views, assembly instructions, and a BOM • Presented completed project to company executives showcasing the systems functionality and reduced test time

At Agro Engineering I did a variety of tasks including data collection, irrigation scheduling, soil water monitoring, pest management, plant sampling, and conduction of yield trials.
