WORK EXPERIENCE
National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Golden, Colorado Summer 2004 Research
Assistant Internship
• Gained valuable experience with five types of systems: Active/Direct System Recirculation,
Active Draindown Systems, Integrated Collector Storage, Thermosiphon, Backup System, and
Antifreeze Active Indirect Systems
• Analyzed data and research the five types of solar water heater. Determined what solar water
heater was best depending on the climate.
• Determined what was the failure of the solar water heater that was returned to Hawaii Electric
Company during 1998 to 2004.
Burgess Services Augusta, Georgia- Fort Gordon July 2008- March 2009 Project
Office Engineer –Security Clearance for Fort Gordon
• Contractor to Hensel Phelps Construction Company
• Manager for the Mechanical Division for a Construction Project in Fort Gordon. Mechanical
Division included: Diesel Tanks, Plumping, Controls, and Mechanical Specifications
• Used AutoCAD to make changes that happen in the field
Proficient with reviewing mechanical drawings and blue prints. Reviewed submittal packages,
•
and AHA (Activity Hazard Analysis) sent in from the sub-contactor according to the
construction codes and specifications.
• Developed the scope, schedule and cost control for the project in Fort Gordon
• Managed the daily activities of Engineering contractors which consisted of Diesel, Plumping,
Controls, and Mechanical Insulation contractors
• Managed and coordinated deliveries with four different sub-contractors companies and closely
monitors onsite deliveries against the submittal package submitted by the sub-contractors.
Managed on the job conflicts between sub-contractors. Created different strategies for when
sub-contractors fail behind the schedule.
• Conducted weekly walk through of the building to assure that the building reflect the
mechanical drawings and equipment.
• Used CAD software to make any changes that happen in the field to reflect the blueprint
building changes.
• Developed and receiving inspection, ES testing, and final inspection of equipment

Ennovate Corporation Aurora, Colorado October 2007 – June 2008
Energy Engineer
• Well-advanced with HVAC sizing for boilers, chillers, pumps, motors, fans, lightening and
windows for the rural school and business in Colorado and Nevada areas to make the building
more energy efficient.
• Used Energy modeling using TRACE 700. Experience with doing saving calculation using
previous electric, water, and gas bills based on cost with real local utility rates used in the
models.
• Used AutoCAD for proposal to show the client were there mechanical equipment will be
located in the building.
• Collected and analyzed information which was use to conduct for the energy models. The
proposed design and design performance are then but in TRACE 700. The result will show the
original baseline of the building and the proposed Energy Cost Modeling (energy efficient
lightening, fans, or HVAC systems)
• Experience with Energy Management Systems (EMS)
Strengthening Minority Access in Research & Training Program (SMART)
Southern University and A& M College Fall 2006
• SMART Program gave me an opportunity to participate in research under the guidance of
