Experience

Axalta Coating Systems

Research, Development and Test Technician April 2016 – Present

Test Technician on the New Model year team which focuses on the manufacturing and testing of colors and coatings to be used on future model cars. Team set a record for color approvals with over 100 unique colors approved for presentation and testing to customers.

As part of a team developed solution, I assumed responsibility for UV testing within my development and testing processes. This new workflow reduced the amount of materials needed by 50 percent and reduced the total process duration by several days.

Body Motion Research Lab, University of Iowa

Undergraduate Researcher October 2013 – April 2015

Analyzed human movement utilizing motion capture technology, both marker data sets and accelerometer suit system output, with Visual 3D, Cortex and Santos software

Compared computer simulation program outputs to human subject observations to identify opportunities for efficiencies and effectiveness in dealing with various load combinations by soldiers

Taught high school and visiting foreign students about the process of motion capture and provided them with a basic understanding of the software utilized in the lab.

Project Work

Designed and fabricated a Proton Therapy Helmet for use in the treatment of brain tumors in a large range of patients. Documented the design and fabrication process for the prototype and possible future modifications as if we were applying for a provisional patent on the design

Created a remote controlled rover utilizing machining techniques including Computer Numerical Control (CNC) milling and 3Dprinting. The rover completed the obstacle course, including side objectives, in the fastest time.

Studied material properties of metals, ceramics, and polymers and applied them in implant design projects

Employed 3D design programs in projects ranging from a remote controlled rover to the redesign of needles and drug delivery systems

Utilized Abaqus and IA-FEMesh in the analysis of biomechanical components. Modeled osteoporotic bone in the radius during a fall to actual events as recorded in medical records / journals. Modeled results were within 2 percent of actual.
