Accomplishments

I was able to put myself through college on my own accord after having bounced back from a near fatal car accident and graduate with a 4.0 #3 in my class.

I was the first and youngest engineer in the U.S to receive FDA certification to work on and implement changes to a pediatric, cardiac life support system during an IDE study for unconditional market approval. I’ve helped over 800 pediatric patients receive ground breaking, state of the art medical treatment through a device which I, as a member of a dedicated engineering team, helped bring to the forefront of the U.S market that gave them all a new chance at life to which otherwise they may not have had.

Worked with team of engineers and technicians on 2 separate large scale oil stabilization

troubleshooting were being performed in accordance with client specs. Worked diligently on one of the largest projects of my career to see that we finished 2 months ahead of schedule and with a perfect safety record.
