Automation is my nack. [I am lazy.]

I am ‘OCD’. [‘Do it very right the first time.’]

Education:

Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton FL 2014/Sep - 2018/May Mechanical Engineering, BS, 2018

Relevant Projects:

Arrow Train: a High Speed Rail alternative concept A 25 inch long craft lifted by a cushion of air, moving on a track [simulating precast concrete], powered by RF controlled fans

Lift is achieved by 4 Electric Ducted Fans (EDF) each controlled by their own Electric Speed Controller (ESC) and [Arduino] micro-processor. All which were connected to a Master micro-processor. Horizontal propulsion is achieved by 2 EDF’s housed in a 3D Printed ‘jet engine’ looking casing at the rear of the craft. It is an accumulation of 20 years worth of following this field. It began as an attempt to make a MagLev the size of a Lionel Train. The break-through was a few years ago in discovering the work of Jean Bertin [circa 1965] and his Aero-Train France. Experience:

Initial project: Reservation System written in Clipper; first phase - to make code

`internally sound’; second phase - transfer concept to program written in Clarion Next project: convert parse & filtering of down loaded data, from Access Macros into Clarion (for 100,000 records, Duration of Access process = 1 hour, 40 minutes, Duration of Clarion process = 21 2 minutes) Next project: In Clarion, to accept very raw data (for mailing purposes), `de- duping’, & cross checking against 5 other files, producing absolute random mail list. A Production Mailing verification program would de-dupe in 90 minutes, whereas the Clarion version would take 8 minutes.

Next project: In Clarion, conversion of print captured medical billing forms to dBase files for reprint purposes.
