Provape Incorporated Monroe, WA March, 2015 - March, 2016 Recognized leader in design and production of Ecigarettes and known for quality and safety standards. Mechanical Engineer
Worked independently to design, develop, and conduct experiments on future products and features; analyze results, compose lab protocols, and present findings to a panel of senior staff
Programmed a pump apparatus to simulate several different types of human lung inhalation using C
Developed new method of taking temperature measurements, allowing readings to be taken in more volatile environments and with increased accuracy
Corrected Thermal resistivity equation allowing for more meaningful analysis of the majority of archived experiments and improved analysis of current experiments
Reformatted lab protocol template to improve experiment documentation and subsequent analysis ZaP (Axial Z-pinch) Flow Experiment Seattle, WA December, 2012 - June, 2014 This experiment aims to test confining high-density plasma using sheared axial flows without negating the beneficial effects of using a z-pinch (no applied fields, high plasma densities, etc). Research Assistant
Designed and CAD modeled the ZaP HD apparatus. Drafted and determined tolerances for major parts
Set up interferometry to measure plasma temperature and density.
Used a schematic to make a bill of materials, obtain supplies for and install a new impedance amplifier Projects
Human Powered Submarine Club January, 2014 - March, 2014 Designed and modeled the hull geometry for the University of Washington’s human powered submarine club working closely with other teams to ensure feasible system integration. Performed fluid dynamics analysis on possible hull designed to compare drag characteristics. Space Design: Colonization Mission January, 2014 - June, 2014 Led the research and development team of the 2014 University of Washington Astronautics Capstone in investigating the feasibility of lunar regolith printing for on-site construction of lunar infrastructure. Findings were presented at the Revolutionary Aerospace Systems Concepts Academic Linkage forum. Education
