WORK EXPERIENCE

Belcan, Contracted by Rolls-Royce Naval Marine

Design Engineer May 2023 - Present

● Automate data analysis using MATLAB comparing measured propeller blades to theoretical dimensions and generate comprehensive reports

● Create and enhance 35+ propeller parts modeled in Creo for increased precision of fit

● Collaborate with manufacturing, supply chain, and analysts departments to discern suitable materials for production, aiming to optimize current processes and reduce expenses

Packaging Engineer Feb 2023 - May 2023

● Designed detailed models for crates to optimize the storage and transportation of propeller blades and components in compliance with MIL specifications

● Optimized pre-existing packaging to effectively and efficiently house propulsion unit components of varying size and specifications

PROJECTS

Custom 3D Printed Gaming Mouse

● Developed multiple CAD model iterations of a computer mouse with different shapes to achieve a weight of 31 grams

● Designed the bottom base, PCB holder, structural members, and shell to meet manufacturing criteria

● Final fabricated design achieved a 50% weight reduction from original mouse with no impact to structural integrity Capstone Project: Basketball Court Line Painting Machine Team Lead

● Interfaced with interdisciplinary engineering team to design, prototype, and fabricate robot capable of autonomously painting the lines of a basketball court

● Programmed an Arduino microprocessor to read data from 4 sensors and command 2 motors

● Used CAD to create custom robot housing and rotational mechanism for the system

● Completed design iterations ranging from device operating on motors rotating at specific speeds at specific points in time to using multiple sensors to complete required task

● Fabricated prototype capable of rotating 360 degrees, painting straight lines, and avoiding obstacles Converting 2WD Drivetrain to 4WD Drivetrain for BU Baja Team Lead

● Worked with a team of 4 to develop a 4WD drivetrain using predetermined specifications

● Designed an epicyclic case to distribute power to the front and rear axles of a vehicle using Solidworks modeling and FEA

● Innovated a system of torsion differentials to allow both powered wheels in the 4WD to spin at different speeds Remote Controlled Trash Compactor Team Lead

● Designed a machine that can assist individuals with picking up trash

● Optimized design to maximize internal storage of trash collector to allow more trash to be collected

● Conceptualized and rendered models of system prototyping with a compacting unit to free up space within the trash collector Research on Acoustic Dampening Devices Team Lead

● Used COMSOL to simulate different frequencies hitting an enclosed environment with specified boundaries understand material properties and sound wave distributions

● Optimized sound wave distribution in an enclosed environment through simulating different materials and sound waves at a given frequency interacting with specified material properties Reverse Engineering and CAD Modeling of Black + Dekker Electric screwdriver

● Removed all components of the Black + Dekker electric Screwdriver and measured individual parts

● Drafted CAD drawings of all internal pieces using Solidworks for model referencing TECHNICAL PROFICIENCIES
