I am currently working as a lead engineer to design a new high temperature/pressure test facility to replace an aging thermal hydraulic test facility used to qualify reactor designs. This includes performing analysis and industry research to design and specify test systems and components as well as identifying new technologies to implement in the facility. I also lead a team of engineers to start-up and validate an existing test facility after an extended shutdown and overhaul period

Worked as a Project Manager in a fluid mechanical test laboratory. I worked to coordinate workforce and facility resources to support incoming and ongoing testing. Additionally, I defined scope and technical requirements for incoming test programs to ensure successful execution on the test lab.

Worked in a field office in the United Kingdom to provide technical guidance on commissioning requirements and test specifications for a first of class submarine reactor plant test program. Worked to ensure the commissioning program met all design requirements and looked for opportunities to improve the efficiency of the commissioning program.

Worked as a Field Engineer at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton, WA. • Lead representative for the design contractor on the Joint Test Group to ensure all reactor planttesting and conditions were per design requirements • Developed audit and surveillance programs and completed onsite inspections of test equipmentand reactor plant maintenance and operations • Mentored new engineers and assisted in progressing their qualification program • Provided onsite technical support and oversight for complex reactor plant maintenance and testprograms • Reviewed and interpreted complex technical specifications to ensure they were properlyimplemented in shipyard test documents • Completed a qualification program and board exam to demonstrate knowledge of mechanical,electrical and nuclear submarine reactor plant systemsActed in a fleet support capacity in a power plant engineering group working as the cognizant engineer for two fluid-mechanical propulsion plant systemsUsing Linux and Visual Basic, developed, executed and documented test cases for certifying thermal analysis software used for analyzing naval nuclear reactor designs
