Objective I am interested in these openings: Full time, part time, contract, temp, intern, apprentice, and
volunteer.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting are natural for me

•
Working in Groups, Projects
• Statics team produced a MatLAB program which calculated joint locations for maximum
simulated load. Once maximum load was established the truss project was built to specifications,
and then tested until failure.
• Driveshaft project: analyzed driveshaft whirl (deflection at critical speed). The team used a
signal conditioner, and OBD2 interface. Used software to datalog parameters, then FFT to reach
conclusions.
• Resource reduction team put together a community of homes that relied on much less water and
electricity. This project successfully integrated water tanks, solar heaters, geothermal, and wind
turbines
Employment Mechanic, High Tech, Addison, IL (Volunteer) Oct 2010
Inspected vehicles for obvious and hidden issues.
Implemented skills learned in auto and engineering classes to properly understand
and repair different issues.
Repaired items that could be saved, therefore reducing cost. Example: plugging
instead of replacing tire.
Maintained cleanliness of work area, and safe practices. Example: wearing welding
mask or protective goggles during die grinder usage.
Replaced wearable items that could not be replaced. Example: brake pads and/or
rotors.
Reported, if could not dissolve, any problem, suspicion, or irregularity that were out
of my control and so the normal so that they could be taken care of immediately.
Automotive Energy
Interests
To do projects and R&D for To do projects and R&D for equipment and
performance parts, more efficient machinery to produce energy that is not
parts, and also technology for non based off of traditional fuels, but instead
gasoline and hybrid vehicles. renewable.
