Versatility & Accomplishments

•Resolved Duke Energy process and production issues by correcting the utilization of a bill of materials program that was not being used to its full potential. I corrected and simplified the revision procedure enabling users to utilize the software without manually forcing in revised quantities and allowing the program to process the changes by calculating the correct quantities.

•As an electrical designer, reduce man hours by working efficiently with processes and procedures and use design concepts through knowledge and experience while at the same time applying the principals and standards from the NEC National Electrical Code.

•Trained Duke Energy staff at Oconee Nuclear Site the correct way to use the company bill of material program to enable the revision process to be approved by management electronically and close out design modifications. DEDB or Design Engineering Database is the software tools used to perform these design and bill of material updates and revisions.

•Experience with unistrut and tube steel nonstandard support design for cable tray and conduit used on the MOX project in South Carolina.

•Was assigned to one of the most complex and challenging areas in a new nuclear facility to route conduit and unistrut supports in for the MOX-Mixed Oxide project and completed the room on time and within budget.
