Design and development of applications that utilize engineered polymers. Applications include Oil & Gas, Automotive, Medical, Heavy Industrial & Aerospace.Use MSC Marc to perform 2D axisymmetric and 3D non-linear finite element analysis to predict how pressure, thermal and dynamic loads effect both elastic-plastic and hyper-elastic materials such as metal, rubber, polyurethane, PEEK and PTFE.

Use Lean manufacturing methods and scientific molding techniques to improve part quality and manufacturing efficiency for plastic injection molding. Designed 2 & 3-plate plastic injection molds.Set up a cellular manufacturing area that reduced production lead time to 25% of original.Researched, specified, and implemented high efficiency/capacity mold cleaning process.

I've been designing custom residential homes for clients since 2002. The construction industry is one of my favorite hobbies and I enjoy keeping up with changes in Architecture and improvements in building processess. Its a pleasure to work with all the great clients I have met in the past, working with currently and will meet in the future.

Certified to teach Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) classes. I help students learn to ride a motorcycle regardless of their experience and develop their crucial critical thinking and safety awareness skills in order to prepare them for one of life's most rewarding hobbies.

Designed rugged sheet metal and plastic electronic enclosures for HMI terminals used in industrial, military and vehicle applications capable of NEMA 4 / IP 67 sealing requirements.Performed thermal analysis to validate heat sink and sheet metal enclosure designs.Collaborated with a small, multi-discipline group of engineers that researched force-based touchscreen technology and successfully developed it for manufacturability.Performed structural FEA of force-based touchscreen sensors leading to a patent pending design.Initiated effort to manufacture force sensors offshore resulting in an 800% cost savings.Worked directly with customers to create unique solutions to their force panel and industrial terminal requirements.Mentored new mechanical engineers and interns and created a mechanical design guide to establish engineering standards and best design practices.Created CAD libraries using PDMWorks which allowed SolidWorks users to collaborate efficiently, reduce wasted time recreating models, and provided access to accurate models of off-the-shelf components.Utilized DFMA to optimize designs for minimal parts and costs.Collaborated closely with purchasing, vendors, and production to ensure projects transitioned seamlessly from product development into manufacturing.

Estimated construction costs/duration and managed expenses of projects ranging from $150k to $2 million.Created custom spreadsheet & database that reduced estimation errors and increased profits by 35%.Designed production and custom home plans ranging from 1500 to 10,000+ sqft.

Built prototypes, performed design verification and HALT tests, conducted failure analysis, analyzed data and presented results to engineering staff. Modified part designs based on test results and tolerance studies to achieve six sigma quality levels.Designed test fixtures for shock & vibration, drop shock, and cyclic test robots.Created engineering artwork drawings for safety labels and product pad printing using Adobe Illustrator.
