Decided to end my time as a student and seminarian, in Spring '23, to continue a career in engineering.- Discerned the priesthood for two years at St. Mary's Seminary in Cleveland, Ohio.- Developed leadership and communication skills by working with many of the 700,000+ members of the Cleveland diocese.- Outreach to the people of the Church involved opportunities to speak on relevant topics in the field of theology.- Helped to lead retreats, give counsel when necessary, and aid in the development of high school and young adult communities.- Fostered a relationship with the Bishop and his appointed officials to better assess and serve the Diocese of Cleveland.

• Managed and designed over 20Mw’s fixed tilt and tracker-based solar projects.o Performed finite element analysis (FEA) on racking systems to choose appropriate materials based on determined tolerances and International Building Codes.o Communicated with salesman and customers to clarify project scope and allowed for better solutions to be given.o Learned to provide efficient solutions to onsite issues by utilizing the multiple disciplines within our team.• Utilized Microsoft Excel VBA to improve existing processes.o Decreased the amount of time to complete each quote by 20 minutes/quote by developing a code that upgraded an existing template to be used by the engineering team.o On average, 1-2 more hours/day could be spent on completing existing project drawings, allowing earlier start dates for on-site construction.

• Developed layout configurations for conveyor belt systems based on existing building structures which improved plant efficiency with material transfers.• Created accurate fabrication drawings to assist in hardware implementation for various projects.o Decreased progress delays in construction by effectively communicating with metal fabrication team to create, fabricate, and deliver solutions to issues that would arise.• Integrated unique customer requests into current company models to provide customers with new solutions to their incoming requests using SolidWorks.• Assisted in AutoCAD HVAC design of ductwork layouts to allow for proper ventilation in recycling warehouses.

- Assisted in 2D design of ductwork layout to allow for proper ventilation in recycling warehouses- Created accurate fabrication drawings in order to assist in hardware implementation for various projects

• Performed design failure mode and effect analysis (DFMEA) and tolerance stack-ups to analyze and verify data for new and/or revised products.• Adapted to multi-location team structures amidst the company merger and communicated information to multiple managing figures.o Unified working disciplines from each location to allow smoother avenues of communication by gathering and presenting the needs of managers to the appropriate parties during the company’s transition.
