EXPERIENCE

General Atomics, San Diego, CA

2008 - present Principal Engineer [Algal Biofuel Processes Development]

. Serviced as task lead multiple tasks in Phase I of DARPA BAA 07-08

Algal Biofuel Project ($21 Million/18 months). Managed key

research tasks for biomass productivity improvements. Developed

project plans as well as technical test plans according to the

project needs and limitations. Managed 7 subcontractors and

monitored $6 M budget. Successfully recovered a major setback on

critical path due to an irresistible issue and brought the progress

back on track within budget and on time. Outstanding performance

secured the awarding of Phase II funding ($22 Million/18 months)

two months earlier than scheduled.

. Participating processes cost evaluation, business model

development, and roadmap development.

. Managing data mining processes and performing system analysis.

. Working with corporative paralegal group on IP related topics.

Ovation Products Corporation, Hudson, NH

2006 - 2008 Director of Systems Development [Miniature Water Distiller

Development]
