Recent Accomplishments:

. Lead Engineer on multiple highly customized deposition systems,

including multi-pass tape systems for superconductors, magnetron

systems for advanced materials research, evaporator systems. Systems

incorporated material handling, in vacuum heaters, laser heaters,

magnetrons, EBeam evaporators, Ion Sources. Responsible for system

layout and design, component specification, vendor and assembly

support.

. Designed, purchased and assembled the first multi-pass tape systems

for superconductors with-in budget and delivered on time at PVD. The

customer purchased a second unit due to performance and timely

delivery of the first unit.

. Received a patent on a low cost method for creating an X-ray optic

condenser which in turn kept the overall project with-in budget.

. Designed, assembled and tested a walk-thru bomb detection portal with-

in a given budget. The device involved a large high speed z-stage,

rotary stage and piston actuators as well as a directional sound

system. Currently being tested by the TSA.
