WORK EXPERIENCE
Instron — Norwood, MA January – July 2019
ESG In-Lined Custom Engineer Co-op
▪ Designed and assembled custom material testing systems and accessories based on unique customer requirements
using mechanicaland pneumatic components
▪ Utilized GD&T design principles to redesign a test fixture for torsional applications, resulting in a ~43% cost reduction
and a design capable of adapting to other products within the standard catalog
▪ Oversaw the shipment and assembly of both re-released and novel engineering designs for over 30 concurrent projects
▪ Used SolidWorks FEA to create product safety declarations for novel designs to ensure proper safety protocol
▪ Communicated with vendors and suppliers to retrieve quotes and establish deadlines for purchased parts
▪ Released 170 change orders for new, modified or re-released designs using a proprietary design database
NeoMatrix — Methuen, MA January – July 2018
Automation Engineer Co-op
▪ Developed, programmed and maintained SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) piping and flushing systems
for industrial manufacturers
▪ Designed HMIs based on electrical and P&ID schematics using Java and Python scripts in Ignition to automate inefficient
industrial processes
▪ Programmed IO, valve, and alarming routines for Allen-Bradley PLCs using ladder logic in RSLogix5000
▪ Created databases for routine recipes in Microsoft SQL Server to personalize flushing systems based on customer’s
changing needs
▪ Interfaced with customers to review the work completed for the SCADA system and to present a demo of the HMI
QuEST Global — East Hartford, CT January – July 2017
Structural Engineer Co-op
▪ Generated global and sub models of F-135 engine parts with ANSYS classic and performed finite element analysis
▪ Analyzed function of military engine components to apply realistic boundary conditions and achieve reasonable
simulation results
▪ Consulted Pratt & Whitney in weekly meetings to discuss project progress and setbacks for redesigned engine parts
▪ Structurally analyzed proprietary engine tools to meet safety factor using ANSYS Workbench
▪ Performed fatigue analysis on engine parts predicting crack propagation and identifying stress points on damaged engine
components

ENGINEERING PROJECTS
Northeastern Capstone Senior Design Project July – December 2019
▪ Fabricated and built an experimental test centrifuge for multiphase flow visualization for small company, Centricrude
▪ Designed the system frame for structure and personally machined each individual frame member from stock material
▪ Cost-effectively spec’d out the spherical ball bearing selection to both support the system’s vertical stack up of 13 coaxially
rotating parts and to account for misalignments in the assembly
Independent Car Projects March 2018 – Present
▪ Performed a full exhaust and muffler replacement on a rusted underside of a 2005 Subaru Legacy to pass state inspection
▪ Preserved the vehicle through oil, oil filter, transmission fluid, brakes and rotor changes
