San Antonio, TX 78240

St. Mary's University, San Antonio, TX Aug 2016 – May 2020

• B.S in Mechanical Engineering, May 2020 3.91/4.0 GPA

• Research and courses in CFD ANSYS Flow Simulation and GD&T EXPERIENCE

EFI Global Inc - Senior Project Intern, San Antonio, TX Aug 2019 – May 2020

• Conducted failure analysis of metal and plastic parts from previous flow loop by using SEM, EDS, FTIR, and TGA

• Designed and built a piping flow loop system in SolidWorks and P&ID to conduct water and compressed air leak tests on failed plumbing and piping components for forensic engineering application

• The piping system must be able to handle the pressure of 85 psi and the temperature of 180 F

• Analyzed and modeled fluid flow by using computational fluid dynamics ANSYS software to increase the fatigue life of 3 months to 10 years

• Interpreted and complied with International Plumbing Code (IPC), ASME B31.3, ASME BPVC Section II-Part D, DNV-RP-C203 Rochester Gauges Inc - Mechanical Engineering Intern, Dallas, TX May 2019 – Aug 2019

• Utilized data analysis and calculating skills to write a program in Excel (VBA, Macro) to calculate and automatically pick the right sub- assemblies for a specified gauge with specific requirements used in propane tanks - Saved 5 hours for Senior Engineers in different projects

• Managed and put together more than 800 sub-assembly drawings in Bill of Materials (BOM) for procurements in ERP while proficiently collaborated with a colleague to perform tests on a new gauge before mass production

• Redesigned and modeled a new gauge used in heavy-duty commercial vehicles and propane tanks: reduced 4% overall cost and increased 1 year of lifetime

• Created and executed test requests to ensure the devices under test (DUTs) meet all ISO standards and ASME requirements for global usage

• Statistically analyzed test results to calibrate for the new gauge Research in Flexible Battery, St Mary’s University, San Antonio Jan 2018 – Dec 2018

• Created a novel Python software with Abaqus interface to employ numerical methods to predict battery performance

• Utilized numerical methods to solve systems of Multiphysics Partial Differential Equations, e.g., finite element method, to predict ionic conductivity as a field variable dependent on a defined deformation field

• Result: a program that predicts how tensile and compressive stresses affect ion conductivity of a flexible battery under deformation. Manuscript in process with the intent to submit to high impact scientific journals. ACTIVITIES AND HONORS

• Chapter President of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Aug 2018–May 2019

• Member of ASME Petroleum Division Collegiate Council Aug 2018–May 2019

• 2019 ASME Petroleum Division Academic Scholarship for excellent academic and leadership records ACHIEVEMENTS

• Finished No. 26 among 207 teams from the U.S in IEEExtreme Programming Competition: https://www.stmarytx.edu/2017/engineering- students-among-best-programmers/
