|Summary |

| |Objective |

| |To obtain a full time position in the field of Mechanical Engineering and |

| |Design. |

| |Relevant Personal Attributes |

| |Recent graduate with nearly two years of Mechanical Engineering and Design |

| |industry experience. |

| |Strengths: Part and system design with concentrations in manufacturability, |

| |ease of assembly, and GD&T. |

| |Skills: Many platforms of CAD as well as engineering analysis software and |

| |testing processes and equipment. |

| |Highly driven, goal oreinted, and excels in a team environment. |

|Industry Experience |

| |Plug Power - Mechanical Designer |Jun. 2012 |

| | |Dec. 2012 |

| |Worked as a design engineer on hydrogen fuel cell systems for material |

| |handling vehicles. In that engine, much of my work was in the mechanical, |

| |electrical and thermal aspects of the Lithium-Ion battery system for |

| |production units including its layout, part design, and engine integration. |

| |This has involved prototype development, engineering changes, bill of |

| |material updates, cost reduction, and testing. The testing aspect was |

| |comprised of managing the requirements of UN testing for shock and vibration|

| |as well as thermal management on a micro and macro scale. |

| |Southco - Mechanical Eng. Intern |Mar. 2012 |

| | |Jun. 2012 |

| |Worked for the Quick Turn/ Quarter Open division of Southco. |

| |Responsibilities included tooling design, process optimization, and material|

| |management in a manufacturing environment. The division works in cold |

| |heading, cold rolling, and swaging among other steel forming processes, each|

| |of which I became familiar with during my employment. |

| |Parker Hannifin - Mechanical Eng. Intern |May 2011 |

| | |Aug. 2011 |

| |Worked for Parker Hannifin's Rotary Seal and Bearing Isolator division. |

| |Carried out endurance, performance, and material comparison tests of various|

| |rotary seal designs. Provided customers with design proposals as well as CNC|

| |operators with manufacturing details. Also headed a project to update legacy|

| |designs to current design standards and performed material identification as|

| |well as spec. verifications. |

| |General Dynamics (ATP) - Mechanical Eng. Intern |Sep. 2010 |

| | |Feb. 2011 |

| |Worked with a team of drafters to update part drawings of a gun assembly in |

| |ProEngineer for the United States Air Force. Also worked hands on with the |

| |design, fabrication, and testing of passive armor systems. This included |

| |material testing, contributing design improvements, and refining the armor |

| |building process for quality and reproducibility. |

|Education |

| |Degree |

| |Rochester Institute of Technology, Rochester, NY Bachelor of Science |

| |in Mechanical Engineering earned May 2012 |

| |GPA: 3.031/4.0 |

| |Relative coursework and projects |

| |Elected Courses: Design for Manufacture, Vibrations I, Engineering |

| |Properties of Materials, Composite Materials |

| |Senior Design Project: Worked as the Mechanical/Controls Integration |

| |Engineer in a team environment to design a biomimetic insect using McKibben|

| |style pneumatic muscles. The outcome of the project was an anatomically |

| |correct ant capable of locomotion with self-contained systems. |

|Skills |

| |Software: Ansys, Ansys Workbench, ProEngineer, LabView, Mathematica, Maple, |

| |MATLab, Autodesk Inventor, Wireless Pro, AutoCAD Lite, RF-Vu, SolidWorks, |

| |Avante, Windchill (Intralink) |

| |Equipment: Lathe, Mill, Drill Press, 200 Ton Platen Press, Signal Generator,|

| |Oscilloscope, Resin Infusion Systems, Various Hand Tools and Wood-working |

| |Tools |

| |Leadership: Held leadership roles in various on campus organizations and |

| |Intramural sports teams. |
