Project management and new product design for the Low Voltage Switchgear Assemblies line.

• Led the development of high-performance, portable lighting tools for an original equipment manufacturer. Individually responsible for the following:
• Designed hazardous location flashlights, chargers, and accessory mounts consisting of injection molded, machined, and sheet metal components, stampings, springs, screws, parabolic reflectors, and aluminum extrusions.
• Conducted tolerance analysis, and created drawings and mechanical documentation.
• Directed, coordinated, and participated in the building and testing of prototypes.
• Performed first piece inspections and worked with vendors to solve engineering challenges.
• Assisted production in the development of efficient manufacturing procedures.

• Collaborated within a contract engineering team to design, develop, test, and validate medical devices.Designed static and dynamic assemblies consisting of injection molded, machined, sheet metal, cast, and.
• Led the development of a diagnostic tool to inspect flow through a silastic cerebrospinal fluid shunt in patients suffering from Hydrocephalus. Created design history files to support 510K submission and approval.
• Designed and built a product-validating device to cycle and test placement of temperature sensors that utilized DAQ software, a PID controller, and heating and cooling elements.
• Created a concept prototype for a disposable delivery system for an epoxy-based, spinal-fusing system.
• Worked with a team to develop an accelerated PCR compound detection system.
• Assisted in developing a non-contact fluid measurement system and corresponding disposable for the monitoring of fluid output from a Foley catheter.

• Developed HPLC methods to test for elemental sulfur, sulfate, acetate, thiosulfate, and sulfide concentration in Chlorobium Tepidum growth studies.
• Attained time points for growth studies and tested samples for various sulfur compounds.
• Prepared stock solution and growth media, and repaired broken biotechnology equipment.
