• Explored process, quality, and tool engineering. Worked alongside full-time, co-op, and intern engineers.

• Assisted with developing, managing, and optimizing processes in composite part production in order to meet

requirements.

• Updated instruction files and blueprints used in fabricating parts and tools.

• Spent time on manufacturing f loor, to gain experience with production of parts from layup through paint and

shipping.

• Collaborated with employees on production f loor to compare processes to instructions.

• Followed numerous parts on small assembly, including parts for Sikorsky and Black Hawk helicopters.

• Studied product f low in manufacturing, lean manufacturing and its effect on processes, and steps of production

t hrough layup.

• Contributed to project involving ducts not laid up regularly; these had been created through casting process but

goal was to determine whether they could work with aqua pour to increase safety and save energy. Investigated

t ypes of molds that would be required to work with aqua pour.

• Teamed up with co-op engineer to test new type of Epocast that was stronger and harder, reduced time of

casting process, and increased strength and safety of doors.
