|Employment & Volunteer Experience |
| |Project Engineer, CSI Technologies Inc., Elgin, |September |
| |IL |2011 - |
| |Performed hydraulic and thermodynamic analysis |Present |
| |of power piping systems for nuclear power plants| |
| |including single- and two-phase flow lines. | |
| |Developed and calibrated computer models to | |
| |predict piping corrosion using the industry | |
| |standard software CHECWORKS. | |
| |Evaluated risk ranking of power plant piping | |
| |systems to classify corrosion susceptibility and| |
| |failure consequence. | |
| |Analyzed piping inspection data to quantify | |
| |degradation rates, component service life, and | |
| |piping integrity. | |
| |Prepared and reviewed engineering calculations, | |
| |reports, procedures, drawings, and database | |
| |applications. | |
| |Communicated project status and results to | |
| |clients and internal management, coordinated | |
| |work on multiple projects, and tracked project | |

| |Illinois at Champaign-Urbana. | |
| |Organized and participated in several research | |
| |projects, data analysis, and experimental device| |
| |construction. | |
| |Designed and built an apparatus to collect | |
| |motion capture data on firefighters for a | |
| |research project for the Illinois Fire Service | |
| |Institute. The goal of the project was to | |
| |compare and contrast the effects on gait and | |
| |motion of firefighters using standard equipment | |
| |to firefighters using a newly designed set of | |
| |equipment. Worked with firefighters through | |
| |numerous trials to ensure proper placement of | |
| |motion sensors on their equipment and to guide | |
| |them through the motion trials. Utilized motion| |
| |analysis software to analyze gait and movement | |
| |patterns. | |
