Performance Profile:
I am a focused and ambitious young professional. In my time working for NAVAIR, I quickly learned the various projects I was assigned and became the Project Engineer for a new communication system that was being evaluated. I took additional responsibility as a representative for the developmental engineers in my division and participated in different groups in order to create better networking and team building opportunities. I value hard work and always seek to create the best product, even if I need to seek expertise outside of my own.
