PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Engineer, Shaw Energy & Chemicals, Toronto, Ontario

Feb-06 to Feb-10

o Managed several packages consisting of reactors, pressure vessels, heat

exchangers and special equipment over the course of seven chemical plant

projects, often executed in parallel

o Prepared general layout and detail design drawings as well as managed

drafters in the preparation of drawings

o Prepared stress calculations to obtain results which were used in the

design of reactors and other pressure vessels

o Developed and delivered specifications and requisitions for procurement

of reactors, pressure vessels and specialized equipment in support of

project milestones and aggressive timelines

o Worked closely with international vendors on the review of designs and

calculations to ensure correctness and compliance with specifications and

industry, company and client standards

o Collaborated with the vendors during the manufacturing stages in order to

address issues related to manufacturability and equipment design

o Coordinated efforts between engineering departments such as Process,

Civil, Piping, Instrumentation & Controls and vendors to address all

design issues related to the equipment

o Supported project management by conducting analysis of profile of

manufactured reactor heads and close fitting internal agitator to verify

design requirements

o Took on responsibility to research and prepare a heat transfer

calculation to determine difference in thermal expansion of jacketed

reactor vessel and internal agitator shaft

Graduate Researcher, University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario

Sep-02 to Apr-04

o Studied the traveling wave instability in Couette flow modified by wall

suction

o Investigated how properties of these waves are affected by flow

modification induced by the application of periodic suction at the

boundary

Teaching Assistant, University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario

Sep-02 to Apr-04

o Counseled a group of fifty, second year engineering students twice per

week to help them understand mathematics course material

o Demonstrated solution procedures for complex mathematical problems and

communicated more subtle mathematical concepts

Assistant Engineer, Conference Cup Ltd. London, Ontario

May-02 to Sep-02

o Prepared design concept, structural calculation, 3D model and detailed

design drawings for a material handling device used to move large spools

of plastic packaging material

o Solicited feedback from material handling device fabricator in order to

improve design for manufacturability

o Led effort to reorganized factory waste disposal program through service

provider agreements and procedures in order to improve efficiency and save

the company 20,000 USD per year

ADDITIONAL EXPERIENCE

Undergraduate Study/Research, University of Western Ontario, London,

Ontario Sep-97 to Apr-02

o Studied numerical methods, analysis and computational methods for the

solutions of various ordinary and partial differential equations without

closed form solutions

o Researched and studied mathematical algorithms and how to efficiently

implement them in code using the C/C++ and MATLAB programming languages

o Implemented in code the lattice gas automata method with a hexagonal grid

to simulate the diffusion of gas molecules in two dimensions

o Solved the Navier-Stokes equation including the Lorentz force by coding

the Crank-Nicolson method in order to simulate the pumping of liquid metal

using a magnetic field

o Studied the analytical aspects of theoretical fluid mechanics in the

areas of viscous fluid flow, magnetohydrodynamics, compressible fluid flow

and hydrodynamics stability

o Led effort to design and select technologies for the power generation and

storage systems of a space station module for the final senior project
