Balanced many projects focused on the development of additively manufactured metallic parts for aerospace applications.• Practiced methodologies of metallographic characterization like sample sectioning, heat treatment, polishing, etching, hardness mapping, optical microscopy, and microstructural analysis. • Gained familiarity with 3D printed steel grades and aerospace alloys such as titanium, and nickel superalloys.• Wrote and updated standard operating and experimental procedure documents for various equipment and tests.• Developed a MATLAB program to be used by technicians for improved hardness mapping capabilities.

Worked with researchers on a method to find the mechanical properties of 3D printed parts and plastics using a non-destructive ultrasound technique. • Wrote a Python program to accurately fit a mathematical model to noisy data.

Used matlab and finite element simulation to find optimal material properties for a metamaterial to perfectly absorb sound. I also worked on sintering borosilicate glass and developing a method for applying a thin conductive coating to glass for ultrasound experiments.
