REVELENT CLASS EXPERIENCE

Bioengineering Capstone Design

Worked with a team of students in conjunction with the Center for Disability Services (CDS) to solve problem s with disabled

patient’s wheelchair.

Worked closely with patient and caretakers to narrow problem and applied engineering techniques to make improvements

including redesign of footrest and armrest components.

Presented proposed solutions to large audience including representatives from Center for Disability Services for approval to

implement solutions.

Advanced Mechanics

Studied the behavior of materials subjected to various types of loads include axially–loaded members, shafts in torsion, thin

shells, beams, columns, and structures that are assemblies of these components.

Analyzed stress, strain, and displacement produced by the loads.

Orthopedic Biomechanics

Explored the current state of knee, dental, spinal, and other orthopedic implants as well as bone lengthening procedures.

Lead class in lecture on bone fractures; fracture healing process, and available treatments using scientific literature.

Mechanobiology

Analyzed physical forces at the cellular, tissue, and organ level and how they relate to mechanical regulation of cellular

behavior, tissue growth, and organ development.

Individually researched and analyzed in depth the scientific literature on the human foot including the adaptive effects and

mechanical differences with respect to barefoot and shod running.

Bioengineering Dynamics

Solved problems with kinematics and kinetics of particles and rigid bodies in planar motion with applications to human

motion analysis.

Tested and compared flow dynamics and shear stress for blood flowing through various model heart valve replacements.

Tested and compared the viscous and inertial drag coefficients and Reynolds numbers of swimming fro gs of various lengths

to analyze their relation with animal size.

EXPERIENCE

Manager; Nauti Jane’s Boat Rentals, Chatham, MA Summer 2009-2014

Responsible for day to day business operations.

Managed employees so that tasks were completed correctly and in a timely fashion.

Pitched and advised prospective customers on lesson and rental options.

Developed lesson plans and trained a broad demographic of clients interested in learning to sail or safely operate power

vessels.

Executed administrative tasks for maintaining personal customer data.

Performed maintenance on a fleet of 15 vessels including basic engine work, fiberglass repair, and sailboat rigging.

Designed and built motorized mechanical Pig Roast Spit Summer 2013

Used self-learned metal fabrication and welding techniques.

Used parts found at a junkyard to reduce 1500 rpm motor to spin pig at about 2 rpm.

Wayland Weston Pop Warner Football, Wayland MA 2006-2008, 2011

Coached and mentored 25 nine and ten year olds in the fundamentals of football.
