SUMMARY:
Electrical Engineer with over 20 years combined experience in areas of design, CAD, cabling systems,
electronics, test equipment, field engineering, control and monitoring systems, and large information systems
electronic hardware troubleshooting. Twelve of these years were spent in space flight development and
sustaining roles. I have proven to adapt quickly in various engineering roles to meet business requirements. My
electrical engineering experience is diverse and versatile. My Knowledge of space flight specifications and
requirements can be applied to new or existing designs in other fields. Hold Lean Six Sigma Greenbelt.
