Highly motivated, self starting Mechanical Engineer looking for an

engineering position in the Denver area. Over four years of experience

working with engineering groups to design, permit, construct and test state

of the art energy systems which utilize existing, alternative, and

renewable energy resources. Experience with estimating project cost, scope

and timeline needed to accurately bid on government and private request for

proposals. Worked in leadership roles training and managing the drafting

department, in charge of creating all visual customer deliverables needed

to communicate design specifications to partners and vendors. Lead

engineer on all CAD resources and database upkeep. Oversaw the execution of

environmental protocols implemented to comply with the emissions and safety

requirements of both state and federal governments. Strong project

management skills and competencies in design, testing, management, project

analysis and reporting.

Professional Experience

Research Engineer, Energy and Environmental

Research Center (EERC), (2009-Present) University of North

Dakota

Design, construct, and test advanced gasification systems utilizing a

number of biomass, industrial and complex organic fuels. Manage

gasification projects, lead testing, and contribute to client and

government reporting including data reduction and analysis of fuel types,

syngas composition, and engine performance. Manage the drafting department,

charged with all conceptual design work for new projects

. Managed the baseline testing and setup of an industrial engine and

power generation system on-site at the EERC, including design work and

infrastructure modifications required to fuel the engine from the

advanced biomass gasifier. Completed extensive baseline natural gas

and initial syngas testing of the engine on site. All work was

completed within budgetary and timeline constraints.

. Oversaw the design, material procurement, and construction of a

portable trailer-mounted advanced biomass gasification system that is

integral to a larger, mobile biomass-to-liquids production system.

. Worked directly with environmental and safety officers in the design,

development, and implementation of a wastewater and solid residue

treatment process for the pilot-scale advanced gasification system.

. Consulted on component design, creation of blueprints, project time

lines and budgets, and worked closely with suppliers in ordering parts

and systems for a number of pilot-scale energy research systems being

constructed by the EERC for both private and corporate partners.

Research Assistant, Energy and Environmental

Research Center (EERC), (2007-2009) University of North

Dakota

. Created blueprints, flow diagrams and P&IDs for renewable fuel and

hydrogen production research systems, including a high-pressure

fluidized-bed gasifier (HP-FBG), an entrained-flow gasifier (EFG) and

a pilot-scale advanced gasification system.

. Conducted initial testing of the pilot-scale advanced gasification

system, performed data reduction and analysis on test data and

contributed to the final reports submitted to corporate and government

partners.

. Created blueprints for portions of the Fischer-Tropsch system, a gas-

to-liquids technology, attached to the HP-FBG and the EFG.

. Worked as part of a design team that installed a hydraulic lift system

on a transport baghouse used for mercury sampling, which has saved

thousands of dollars in construction and operating costs.

Education

. B.S., Mechanical Engineering, University of North Dakota, 2008.

. Minor, Mathematics, University of North Dakota, 2008.

. Member of The University of North Dakota Football and Track teams,

2004-2009
