Working in the Bearing Engineering group providing support for several attitude control devices and systems including Reaction Wheel Assemblies and Control Moment Gyroscopes.

This research team analyzes mathematical patterns and material properties related to Hamiltonian circuits, rigid body folding, as well as developing new useful geometrical shapes such as uniform width solids. Currently writing and publishing a paper about the creation and discovery of a new family of solids of constant width.

This research team analyzes, streamlines, and corrects errors in the coding used for the viewing and HR-EBSD analysis of microscopic samples. Currently implementing new convergence methods within the HR-EBSD process and updating and implementing new graphical tools that demonstrate material properties. Finalized and implemented the Plot Burgers vector tool into the main GUI. Writing a paper about the implementation of new convergence methods and comparing them to previously used methods.

Oversaw 50 employees and was tasked with organization of the dining operations for a youth camp with 2,000 to 3,000 attendees every week. I held and organized the training meetings for new employees, as well as directed weekly meetings with team leads from the different areas. Created the standard operating procedures, diagrams, and other documentation for employee training.
