Work

Experience Mechanical Designer - Dorman Products April 2013-June 2013

Reverse engineered automotive aftermarket components using Solidworks

Took measurements using calipers, faro arm, and optical comparator

Consulted with lead engineer to ensure part designs were accurate and dimensioned properly

Ensured timely documentation of finished parts in Excel

Projects Senior Design Project- Design of Spherical Pressure Vessel September 2011-May 2012

Worked with a group of five team members and an advisor on the design, development, and manufacturing

of a spherical pressure vessel using epoxy reinforced carbon fiber layers

Project involved working under budget constraints, ordering supplies, keeping track of expenses, delivering

weekly PowerPoint presentations

Utilized techniques such as vacuum bagging, hydraulic pressure testing, and machining

Research

Experience Temple University- Biomechanics/Neuroengineering Lab May 2015- July 2015

Utilized Matlab to perform data analysis on EMG (Electromyography) recordings of the muscular activity

of cats locomoting on a treadmill

Used mathematical method known as Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to decompose matrices and

large sets of data for the purpose of identifying muscle synergies responsible for particular locomotion behaviors in decerebrate cats.

Assisted graduate students, post-docs, and graduate advisor in performing research on cat biomechanics

and neural control of movement

Temple University- School of Podiatry Biomechanics Laboratory June 2015-July 2015

Gathered data for a pilot study to determine foot flexibilities for ten healthy

individuals.

Laboratory experimentation involved shoe flexibility testing and feet flexibility testing of 3 subjects

Worked with Chief Engineer to conduct foot flexibility studies on different subjects using a prototype

torque tester machine

Collected data and performed data analysis in Matlab and Excel

Temple University Virtual Environment Postural Orientation Lab September 2014- December 2014

Assisted with kinematic data collection from Trigno EMG and Vicon Motion Capture systems

Performed post-processing of data in Matlab and Cortex software

Worked with members from various departments

Education Temple University- College of Engineering, Philadelphia, PA September 2013-August 2015

M.S. in Bioengineering, Biomechanics Concentration, GPA: 3.41

Rutgers University- School of Engineering, New Brunswick, NJ January 2013

B.S. in Mechanical Engineering
