OBJECTIVE To utilize my five years of design and process engineering experience to successfully transition

into a position in the process engineering field.

ENGINEERING EXPERIENCE

April 2013 – April 2014

Mechanical Design Engineer, Polyurethane Systems

Cannon USA Inc, Cranberry Twp, PA

Authored fluid system documents and drawings, such as Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs),

Process Flow drawings, Piping Sizing Calculations, Heat Exchanger Sizing Calculations, and others including

performance and functional requirement calculations.

Identified problems in current design and collaborated with technicians to devise a solution for those

problems.

W orked with heat exchanger manufacturers to design and size appropriate heat exchangers needed for the

application.

Negotiated with product vendors to obtain production equipment and parts for the best value.

Supervised testing of components at out of state plants to ensure that they worked as designed.

Nuclear (Fluid) Systems Engineer, AP1000® Power Plant July 2009 – March 2013

W estinghouse Electric Company LLC, Cranberry Twp, PA

Authored, reviewed, and verified documents related to nuclear fluid system function, such as the System

Specification Document, Component Control Requirements calculations, Instrument Interface Requirements

calculations, Piping & Instrumentation Diagr ams (P&IDs), Process Flow calculations, and others including

datasheet reports, performance calculations, and functional requirement calculations.

Identified problems in current system design and devised ways to resolve those problems by writing the

necessary Design Change Proposals.

Engaged Customers in the Chemical and Volume Control System (CVS) and Standard Solid Waste System

(WSS) Final Design Reviews through informative presentations, negotiating and resolving design issues, and

finalizing changes in order to bring system design to closure.

W orked with a select group to obtain answers to open issues so as to bring the AP1000 ® design to

finalization.

Interacted with business groups to gather the required information to reach milestones and completed

projects worth 100 million dollars.

May 2008 – August 2008

Systems and Equipment Engineering Internship

W estinghouse Electric Company LLC, Monroeville, PA

Performed Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) simulations in order to study emergency situations at currently

operating PWR (pressurized water reactor) plants.

Determined the location of the source of water hammers by viewing visual recordings of water flow through

pipe to mitigate any hydrodynamic loads in the piping.

Created reports of the LOCA simulations and provided the conclusions of those simulations to selected PWR

plants.

EDUCATION
