EDUCATION
FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY, Panama City, FL
Bachelors of Science in Electrical Engineering, Graduated Dec. 2014
Major GPA: 3.168/4.000
Senior Capstone Design Project: Test Engineer for team of 5 electrical engineers. An over-band magnetic separator was developed. The system separated ferrous from non-ferrous material. The test plan created for the system verified that the system properly meet the requirements. The system successfully passed all tests: it was able to sort 98% of the material correctly; it sorted 2.5 gallons of material within a minute; and it had a user-friendly interface. The result was a product that significantly increased the productivity and profitability for the facility that it was designed for.

EXPERIENCE
Applied Research Associates, Panama City, FL
Junior Electrical Engineer, March 2015- Present
Hours: 40 hrs/week
Data Collection and Analyses
Performed Automated Data Collection of sensor readings to include voltage and power consumption using LabView Data Acquisition software
Analyzed recorded energy consumption data through validation means using Microsoft Excel. Tools such as graphs, charts, pivot tables and macros were used extensively
Built reports and reporting tools detailing consumption and performance trends that helped management identify excessive consumption patterns that eventually lead to resource and money savings
Incorporated metering hardware Automated/Advanced Meter readings for outdoor and indoor conditions
HVAC
Implemented Time of Day Schedule on the system to minimize energy consumption while maintaining maximum comfortability levels
Established and maintained Set Points based on ASHRAE standards of performance
Integrated Energy control System for effective cooling and airflow into a military shelter
Developed a prototype Direct Digital Control unit and analyzed its performance impact on an HVAC system
Electrical
Developed a microcontroller based system that controlled the airflow direction of an HVAC system. This system was dependent on a real time clock that communicated with the microcontroller via I2C serial communication. It also had an LCD display that showed the correct time and mode of the system.
Designed the power supply circuit for the above mentioned microcontroller based system. This power supply consisted of a full wave bridge rectifier, an RC filter, and a voltage regulator
Simulated designs using Multisim.
Gained exposure to Ultiboard and Proteus 8 for printed circuit board design.
